If you're feeling brave you're welcome to dive into my code and take whatever you want for your own carts :D
The FileSearch function in fileSearch.lua will be a good place to start. Also check out jaroWinkler.lua for an example of a similarity function. And you're welcome to ask me how any of this works, but I do not guarantee that I will remember anything :P
