Though if you do decide to use Levenstein, it's implemented here in R:

I'm pretty sure this is in C code so it should be mighty fast.

Dear All,
I need to estimate the level of similarity of two strings. For example:
string1<- c("depending","audience","research", "school");
string2<- c("audience","push","drama","button","depending");
The words in string may occur in different order though. What function would
you recommend to use to estimate similarity (e.g., levenstein, distance)?
Appreciate for any advices.
