Barton, I think that 20.1.8 is the correct choice, and the equations
that I mentioned are the oblate/prolate spheroidal equations.
I can't say what is the best source as I am not an expert on these
things. A&S seems like a good, standard one.
sed -i 's/XX/xx/g;' *.*
will globally change all XX to xx in all files in the pwd, and it does
this safely.
