So could I. I think one of the major tabs in the system I document is being
renamed from "A" to "B" and, if that is so, there are hundreds of changes I
would like to automagically update.

I could use some "automagic" right about now.

"Automagically..." <shudder> When I first saw that so-called word in
1997 (in a RoboHelp manual), I almost pitched the book through a window.
Fortunately, I was underground at the time.

I love the word "automagically," which surely would be harmless even if it
were published accidentally.

In my own work, however, I always assume that something will go wrong and
that any goofy placeholder text or images will be published. That's why I
don't use them.

I also always assume that microphones are on and guns are loaded.
