I'm not so sure whether this is a good idea -- it is very improbable
that a misspelled verse is actually Genesis 1:1. A better solution
would be aborti

presently for dealing with this problem.

Sorry, I think I got a bit misinterpreted here. :-) I'm all for the
creation of GUI tools -- we need them. Even the commandline gurus
sometimes need them :-).

Use a hex editor to see if there are such characters.
Please post a small part of the vpl file here so we can see if it's correct.

While your statement is correct, the context is wrong.
Fred is able to use commandline tools, but he is either having
