$replacex Performs search/replace on text strings, but doesn't replace what's already been replaced. $replacexcs is the case sensitive version.
Note $replace search each substring seperately, $replace(1234,234,z,123,u) is 1z, "234" was first checked against "1234" and then "123" isn't even checked because we reached the end of the string. But $replacex does not work like that, $replacex(1234,234,z,123,u) is u4, because the main loop is done on the input string, trying for each position to match any of the substring, so 123 is found first.
