Code:

\b(T)\b

in regex mode should catch most cases (replace with I).

Nothing's going to be perfect--like if there's markup dividing an actual word, for instance (not that I can think of any good reason why there should be).

But it should catch things like:

"T want to know."

or

There but for the grace of god go T.

But it will fail, if say, there's some dialog that attempts to simulate someone stuttering. Like:

"I want T-T-T-T-To know!"
