Now I get it... I think. ^_^' I presume a given
sentence token is never going to be "substituted" more
than once, right? Because I was looking for a solution
that allowed the user to line up substitutions, so he
could create a configuration like:

((" waht", " what"),
 (" what's ", " what is "))

An the bot would correctly normalize a sentence

"Waht's the matter?"

into 

"WHAT IS THE MATTER"

That's certainly true if you used GPL'ed code on your
work, but if you simply created a "clean room"
implementation of the AIML standard, I'm not sure the
GPL applies. Actually the AIML working draft makes no
mention to licences at all, so I guess it is an open
standard, which does not rule out closed-source
implementations.
