in reply to Problems with strings

Define homogenize?

Why is "Types of queries..." under "conditions"? Surely that's a feature?

I (we?) have no idea what you have, what you want, or where you need to get to.

    Example: Heterogenic string:
    ababababababaab
    Homogenic string (after BWT (ref: Perl impl of bwt))
    bbbbbbbaaaaaaaa
    same characters stick together! I have not added any extra information to the initial string and yet have an encoder that homogenizes the initial string. So what other transforms you now of, that can be used to achieve similar behaviour
        To what end?

        Indeed.
