REPEATED REPLACE locates one string in another and then replaces the text with new text.

Any LIST DORs in the input string of length greater than one must all be the same length. The replace operation is repeated for each value in the input LIST. The output LIST will also be this length. It can be useful when arbitrary input text needs to be escaped, for example when rendering characters such as < in HTML, or to allow ‘ in a database query. Regular Expressions may also be turned on for use during searching.
