The "enchefferizer" is a program which takes a text file and changes strings of
characters in it. It's a bit more complicated than your average find and
replace. It's one of a whole class of language changers. This one in particular
will convert text into the sort of mock-language used by the Swedish Chef on The
Muppet Show. Here's a sample, borrowed -- okay, stolen shamelessly -- from the
phrases section of TKD...

If I had a swordfish, I'd share it with you./ David Wood has opinions,
But this is a halibut and IT'S ALL MINE! / but very few people care.
