in thread Comparing Lines within a Word List

To clarify: 'aSaa' is NOT a match for 'aaRa'.

To be a match, two words must be identical position-by-position, except in one position, and in that particular position, one word has an R while the other has an S.

Thanks also for the explanation regarding the octal value of the characters.
