[Jprogramming] Poor mans way of creating XML document files in J

[Alex Rufon]

Hi Chris,

For the longest time. Let me repeat that, for the longest time ... I've always thought of rplc as handling only 1 change per run. I would normally make an explicity for_xyz. loop to handle multiple replacement. 

Something new every day. :)

Thanks!

I'm not sure exactly what you are doing, but just want to point out that
rplc will do several replaces at once:

   'abcdef' rplc 'a';'XY';'de';'DE'
XYbcDEf
