Suppose, as in A245920, that S = (s(0),s(1),s(2),...) is an infinite sequence such that every finite block of consecutive terms occurs infinitely many times in S. (It is assumed that A014675 is such a sequence.) Let B = B(m,k) = (s(m-k),s(m-k+1),...,s(m)) be such a block, where m >= 0 and k >= 0. Let m(1) be the least i > m such that (s(i-k), s(i-k+1),...,s(i)) = B(m,k), and put B(m(1),k+1) = (s(m(1)-k-1),s(m(1)-k),...,s(m(1))). Let m(2) be the least i > m(1) such that (s(i-k-1),s(i-k),...,s(i)) = B(m(1),k+1), and put B(m(2),k+2) = (s(m(2)-k-2),s(m(2)-k-1),...,s(m(2))). Continuing in this manner gives a sequence of blocks B(m(n),k+n). Let B'(n) = reverse(B(m(n),k+n)), so that for n >= 1, B'(n) comes from B'(n-1) by suffixing a single term; thus the limit of B'(n) is defined; we call it the "limit-reverse of S with initial block B(m,k)", denoted by S*(m,k), or simply S*.

EXAMPLE
S = the infinite Fibonacci word A014675, with B = (s(2), s(3)); that is, (m,k) = (2,3)
S = (2,1,2,2,1,2,1,2,2,1,2,2,1,2,1,2,2,1,2,...)
B'(0) = (2,2)
B'(1) = (2,2,1)
B'(2) = (2,2,1,2)
B'(3) = (2,2,1,2,1)
B'(4) = (2,2,1,2,1,2)
B'(5) = (2,2,1,2,1,2,2)
S* = (2,2,1,2,1,2,2,1,2,2,1,2,1,2,2,1,2,1,...), with index sequence (3,8,11,16,21,29,...)
