Well, I also thought that all the jumping around in Boyer-Moore wasn't too
good (after each shift we must bite off a chunk from the remaining input,
pushing that onto the stack, which costs something). But I gave it a try
today and here's what I came up with:

import Data.List (tails)
import Data.Map (Map)
import qualified Data.Map as Map
import Data.Array.Unboxed

searchRep :: String -> String -> String -> String
searchRep src rp str = run (reverse $ take len1 str) $ drop len1 str
    where
      len = length src
      len1 = len-1
      pat :: UArray Int Char
      pat = listArray (0,len1) src
      ch = pat!len1
      badChar :: Map Char Int
      badChar = Map.fromList $ zip src [0 .. ]
      getBc c = case Map.lookup c badChar of
                   Just n  -> n
                   Nothing -> -1
      suffs :: UArray Int Int
      suffs = listArray (0,len1) $! init $! map (pr 0 crs) $! tails crs
              where
                crs = reverse src
                pr n (x:xs) (y:ys) | x == y = pr (n+1) xs ys
                pr n _ _ = n
      bmGs0 :: UArray Int Int
bmGs0 = array (0,len1) [(j,k) | (k,k') <- zip (tail $! help) help, j <-
[k' .. k-1]]
      help = [k | k <- [0 .. len], k == len || suffs!k == len-k]
      bmGs :: UArray Int Int
      bmGs = bmGs0 // [(len1-suffs!k,k) | k <- [len1,len-2 .. 1]]
      run by "" = reverse by
      run by (c:cs)
        | c == ch   = process (c:by) cs
        | otherwise = run (c:by) cs
      roll n xs ys | n <= 0 = (xs, ys)
      roll n xs (y:ys) = roll (n-1) (y:xs) ys
      roll _ xs "" = (xs, "")
      walk n "" = (n,"")
      walk n st@(c:cs)
        | n < 0      = (n,st)
        | c == pat!n = walk (n-1) cs
        | otherwise  = (n,st)
      process con left
        | i < 0     = reverse pass ++ rp ++ run "" left
        | otherwise = {- bye ++ -} run ncon nleft
          where
             (i,pass) = walk len1 con
             d = if null pass then i+1 else max (bmGs!i) (i - getBc (head pass))
             -- bye = reverse $! drop (len-d) con
             (ncon,nleft) = roll (d-1) {- (take (len-d) con) -} con left

it's not as fast as KMP for the tests, but not too bad.
Commenting out 'bye' gives a bit of extra speed, but if it's _long_ before a match (if any), we'd be better off relieving our memory with 'bye', I think.

Any improvements are welcome, certainly some of you can do much better.

It is fast on my machine except that you are using Map to lookup
for badChar which is O(log n).
I;ve placed this instead:
     badChar :: UArray Int Int
     badChar  = array (0,255) ([(i,-1) | i <- [0..255]] ++ proc src 0)
     proc [] _ = []
     proc (s:st) i = (ord s,i):proc  st (i+1)
     getBc c = badChar ! ord c

which gaved it significant boost, O(1) lookup.
Now it's faster then brute force method but 10% slower then KMP
with my test.
I've also performed tests on dual Xeon linux box and results are proportionally
the same as on my intel windows box.
KMP wins again 10% better then BM and 20-30% better then straightforward search,
which means that KMP is well suited for non indexed strings.



Cheers,
Daniel

P.S. As an algorithm, I prefer KMP, it's quite elegant whereas BM is somewhat
fussy.

Yes, BM is for indexed structures.

Greetings, Bane.
