Hello Donna;
That "y. -> y" is a simple search-and-replace is something I didn't
feel in my gut. If that was your experience, fine. The
irreversibility of that kind of change made me hesitate to consider it.
Using a simple search-and-replace "y. -> y" didn't work for me because I
use "try."
I used this sequence of search-and-replace:
try. -> tryXX.
y. -> y
tryXX. -> try.
Other possible problems involve for loop indices.
I.e. "for_xx." would be affected by "x. -> x"

Chris Burke had already put a script for batch conversion in j-wiki sometime
ago. It is really simple to do conversion using that script. It may be a good
idea to mention it inside release note.
