Well, I'm still proud of my little example when the question was raised
in April:

   CDS.BP C
   01 X = 'How much wood would a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could
chuck wood?'
   02 CRT X
   03 CRT CONVERT( 'woodchuck', 'groundhog', X )
   04 CRT CHANGE( CHANGE( X, 'wood', 'ground' ), 'chuck', 'hog' )
   
   >RUN CDS.BP C
   How much wood would a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck
wood?
   Hrg mhnd grru grhlu a grrundhng ndhng, if a grrundhng nrhlu ndhng
grru?
   How much ground would a groundhog hog, if a groundhog could hog
ground?


Dang, I'm clever!

P.S. Did you know that VLIST won't tolerate a program named "C"?

   >VLIST CDS.BP C
   "BP" is not a file name.
