Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Yoficator (Russian: ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿) is a computer program or extension for a text editor that restores the Cyrillic letter "Yo" (¿) in Russian texts in places where the letter "Ye" (¿) was used instead. The majority of newspapers and publishers use "Ye" in all contexts, assuming that an educated reader can distinguish which letter is meant. This creates a large number of homographs (but not homophones), and this is the problem the yoficator is intended to fix. The problem of choice between "Ye" and "Yo" in spelling can be fairly complex and requires a deep analysis of the context. Therefore yoficators capable of completely solving this problem automatically do not yet exist. The existing yoficators rely on specially created databases of Russian words containing the letter "Yo", and either replace "Ye" by "Yo" only in indisputable cases ("incomplete" or "quick yofication") or work interactively leaving the choice to the user in uncertain cases (as, for example, the choice between "¿¿¿" - "everyone" and "¿¿¿" - "everything").
