I've added a Python implementation of SIFT4 as described here:
https://siderite.dev/blog/super-fast-and-accurate-string-distance.html/
The code included in this fork is a Python translation of the JavaScript code for Extended/General SIFT4 described on the website.
Usage is similar to the existing methods of the package, i.e.:
a = SIFT4()
a.distance('abcdef', 'bcdea')
