You can also set the match threshold which by default is 75

matcher.threshold = 80

Updaing Replacements and Removals

To check the current removals

matcher.removals

Adding a new removal

matcher.removals = "Plank"

To check the current replacements

matcher.replacements

Adding a new replacement
