Hello scripters !

A couple of newbie questions (MacOS X 10.5.8):

~> 1- I have a TextEdit Seach/Replace script that I use after OCR to improve accuracy.

Code line example:
--
set TheText to my SearchReplace(TheText, "CONCLLISION", "CONCLUSION")
--

My problem:
I often encounter the following OCR mistake: "equi/ibration" instead of "equilibration".


The following line does not work ("equi/ibration" is nor found)
--
set TheText to my SearchReplace(TheText, "equi/ibration", "equilibration")
--
Any suggestion ?


~> 2- Can a script recognize the user of the mac ?

Thanks in advance.

Best.

BA
