Writing a full-text search engine using Bloom filters

Leveraging grep was my point, not that this would actually be code I'd use. Let's assume the line before that was getting $terms out of the query and sanitizing it. I suppose that doubles the length of my solution, though!

Filtering out all characters other than ASCII alphabetical with preg_replace would probably do it.

And yeah, I'm not a huge fan of php - or the ridiculous function names it is known for. However, it can be dead simple to set up for trivial tasks (which is about all od want to use it for).
