An excellent example of the value of Xy4's wildcards for search and

Or any other word processor. It seems so simple, but NOBODY
else apparently every thought of it. I once had to edit an
MS that had been typed (not more than 10 years ago!). We had
it OCR'd, but the OCR app couldn't tell 0 from O, l from 1.
It was a LONG paper. I imported it (plain ASCII text, thank
heavens!) to Xy, ran
CI /{WildN}l/{WildN}1/ XC
and then reversed that (l{wildN}/1{WildN}), and did the same
with 0 and O. All cleaned up in no time flat.
