23   * This class handles sequences of replacements resulting from a comparison.
24   * <p>
25   * The comparison of two objects sequences leads to the identification of common
26   * parts and parts which only belong to the first or to the second sequence. The
27   * common parts appear in the edit script in the form of <em>keep</em> commands,
28   * they can be considered as synchronization objects between the two sequences.
29   * These synchronization objects split the two sequences in synchronized
30   * sub-sequences. The first sequence can be transformed into the second one by
31   * replacing each synchronized sub-sequence of the first sequence by the
32   * corresponding sub-sequence of the second sequence. This is a synthetic way to
33   * see an {@link EditScript edit script}, replacing individual
34   * {@link DeleteCommand delete}, {@link KeepCommand keep} and
35   * {@link InsertCommand insert} commands by fewer replacements acting on
36   * complete sub-sequences.
37   * </p>
38   * <p>
39   * This class is devoted to perform this interpretation. It visits an
40   * {@link EditScript edit script} (because it implements the
41   * {@link CommandVisitor CommandVisitor} interface) and calls a user-supplied
42   * handler implementing the {@link ReplacementsHandler ReplacementsHandler}
43   * interface to process the sub-sequences.
