Well, all righty then. :-)

The "ApplyTextTransform" entry point takes a single parameter, 
which is a string of Unicode characters. This is the text that 
is being processed by the text factory. The script should 
transform it as desired, and then return the modified string as 
the result of the ApplyTextTransform function. So, the general 
syntax looks like:

     on ApplyTextTransform(theString)

         --  do something to theString

         return theString

     end ApplyTextTransform

Enjoy,

R.

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they 
sedate me.
