Not really. Just that it works rather than not works:-)

replace() not translate() translate() only does single character translations.

Note also that my code doesn't cope with the . not being a sibling of
the cite (the test file I posted demonstrates that, but I don't think I
highlighted it)


see the result I posted

   Some text and more text [XXX1]<EM>. S

The . inside the em isn't pulled before the cite.

If you need to do that I'd do as Mike suggested and do a first pass that
normalises things so the cite and . are always siblings.
