<p>If you regularly receive documents from other people for editing,

|
|
illustrates this by forcing certain words to be spelled in American
|
|
English.<br>
|
|
In order for this example to work, you must execute it from an open
|
|
text document. For a real world application, you’d probably
|
|
want to read the words from an external file.</p>

<td width="76%" valign="top">
|
|
<p>Another application of automatic text modification is related to
|
|
stylistic questions. Suppose your company’s policy is to avoid
|
|
the use of certain words. You want to replace these words, but you
|
|
can’t do that automatically, because you have to find the appropriate
|
|
replacement which depends on the context. So instead of deleting
|
|
or replacing the offending words automatically, you change their
|
|
color to make them stand out during a subsequent manual review process.<br>
|
|
The following example handles two kinds of unwanted wordings: those
|
|
which are absolutely forbidden and must be replaced by something
|
|
else, and those which are considered bad style. A subroutine is
|
|
responsible for the changes. It can be used to make all words in
|
|
a list appear in a certain color in the text document. To keep the
|
|
lists short, we are using regular expressions here which provide
|
|
for the variants of the words (plural, adjective etc.).</p>

Bookmarks</font></a></td>
|
|
<td width="76%" valign="top">
|
|
<p>The next example does something very similar. This time, however,
|
|
we do not<br>
|
|
change the color of the words but insert a bookmark at each of them.
|
|
You can thus use the StarOffice navigator to jump directly from
|
|
word to word. Bookmarks have first to be created using <font face="Courier New, Courier, mono">createInstance()</font>.
|
|
They are then inserted with <font face="Courier New, Courier, mono">insertTextContent()</font>
|
|
at the current text range.</p>
|
|
<p>The main difference to the preceding example is the For loop in
|
|
<font face="Courier New, Courier, mono">markList()</font>. Instead
|
|
of changing the color of the current word, it creates a new bookmark,
|
|
oBookmark, whose name is the current word with an integer appended.
|
|
It then<br>
|
|
inserts this bookmark at the word.</p>
