Aahz,
Thanks for your feedback. (Thanks also to Emile and Mikael.) It won't always
be single characters, I'm afraid - ROT13 was just the example that broke it.
I suppose I'll have to look into regular expressions, then. (Looks at
regular expression HOWTO.) Sigh. 

Cheers,

Some people, when confronted with a problem, think 'I know, I'll use regular
expressions'. Now they have two problems. - Jamie Zawinski, comp.lang.emacs
