Actually, this version might be better:

(defun gnus-summary-modify-display-table (chars string)
  "Changes the display table of the article buffer.
This function takes CHARS and modifies the display table in the article
buffer such that instances of those characters show up as STRING."
  (interactive (list (read-string "Char: ")
                     (read-string "Replacement: ")))
  (gnus-eval-in-buffer-window gnus-article-buffer
    (let ((bdt (or buffer-display-table (make-display-table))))
      (mapcar chars (lambda (char) (aset bdt char (vconcat string))))
      (setq buffer-display-table bdt))))
