Secrets of the filter command?

[Joe Lewis Wilkins]

Thanks for the reminder Jacqui and Jim. "Snake" was probably a name I  
gave it; perhaps not, but it did "snake" through all of the scripts.  
I didn't realize that the Rev. "Find and Replace..." is that  
versatile; but, then, I've never tried it. (smile) Of course, one of  
the reasons I didn't think it would be as useful is because I thought  
that would mean treating each thing that was found in the same  
manner. With the HC routine, you could edit the scripts in which the  
item was found in any manner you wanted.
