 		this is extremely simplified example of code i am working on:
yourtext$ = Input("Enter your text here: ")
yourtext$ = Replace(yourtext$,"a","@")
yourtext$ = Replace(yourtext$,"b","|3")

i am making a translator in blitz basic that translates your text into l33t (internet slang) and i don't know how to program it so it can change "c" into "(", AND "cker" into "xor", if that's even possible. (example: "hacker" into "haxor", which is another oddity of l33t). if it is possible will someone please tell me how to do it?

 		Try changing "cker" to "xor" first. Then change the "c"s to "(".
