Andrea mentioned two different tools merged into one. 1. postOCR code comes mainly from Pathoschild's RegexMenuFramework<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Pathoschild/Scripts/Regex_menu_framework> with minor changes for Italian OCR errors. 2. apostrophes conversion (from keyboard, typewriter one ' into real apostrophe character ’) comes from an original it.source script (in python to be used by a bot, and in js to be merged into postOCR); it's very complex, since conversions into templates, link, html tags, math tags and wiki markup must be avoided. This it far from simple, since regex doesn't help to manage nested templates/nested code structures. No, we don't document this stuff. We simply use it.... a lot.
