OK. Let's look at a possible scenario: Everytime the word
"Mugwumps" appears on the site, no matter where, I want it
to be BOLD and be a link to <http://www.mugwumps.com>. (It
doesn't really exist, at least I don't think it does.)
Typing all the tags necessary for this when it appears in
content REPEATEDLY across the site is time consuming. I'd
like to be able to create a "macro" (in the language you
used in the example site) or a "glosarry" (my language)
entry, so whenever I type <[MGWC]> or even if it just
encounters the word, it replaces it with <B><A
HREF....>Mugwumps</A><B>.

Can you combine :h and :f together?
