most software will let you search specific strings. so like, “Will” != “will”

frankly that plus what the other guy’s comment said, this seems like a non-issue that you’re kind of responsible for if you just decide to seek no solution and truck through the significant extra labor.

I have found that many people's problems in life are in fact caused by their own choices and refusal to find solutions.
