I've got a real easy one here (in theory). I have some XML files that
were generated by a program, but generated imperfectly. There's some
naked ampersands that need to be converted to amp;. I need a regexp
that will detect them and change them. Sounds

Problem is that this will break things like

Why not just:
s/(?!amp;)/amp;/g
i.e. change every ampersand that isn't followed by 'amp;' into amp;
