Patrick, et all, I am a new member and Patrick asked me to post my questions here for the benefit of all.
I am working with BBedit and automator to script some html changes to a list of filenames. I now have the opportunity to use my actual in-house filenames for the script... example 100050-D vrs the arbitrary text 01-06-2009- stock_photo. This is made possible through A Better Finder Renamer, which can rename (macOS) finder items from a list found in a text file. However, this now poses a problem with non repeating characters to search and replace on. They also vary in the number of characters in the filename, can this work? Is there a grep script that will take the following 100050-D.htm or any of the following... 00005.htm 61305-M.htm 50161-L.htm and turn it into this... <li><a href="http://widstock.com/static/100050-D.htm";>100050-D.htm</ li> The above examples are all of my filename styles. I can see now why a standard length and structure would have been smart at the onset. Thanks for any help here.
