Did not know about it. Will give it a try. Thanks.

This is clearly interesting, and maybe part of the final solution. However,
one of the point is that we should be able to:

- define once that DNS =3D Domain Name System
- have all occurrences of DNS automagically pointing to its definition
- (optionnally) have the first occurrence of DNS automagically expanded.

(I guess that) the above does not meet this, and that's what made my spirit=
 go
in the direction of pre-processing.

But maybe alternatives do exist to meet those "requirements".

Best regards,
