Modifying for your own use

Letters are converted based on the dictionary. The dictionary is found in l33tify.js and you can add or remove letter translations by adding or removing to the d1ct10n4ry object.

    e: ['3', '*'],
    f: ['ph'],
    g: ['6'],
    i: ["1", "!", "l", "|", '*'],

    o: ['0', '*'],
    s: ['5', 'z', '$'],
