A shell script might work for you with a little sed. Here's a quick
hack I use. I would test on some sample areas before doing anything
important though. Assume you have a bunch of html files and want to
change the word "old" to "new". You would do this:
sar "old" "new" "*.html"
the quotes are needed. Here's the script:
<---------------- begin cut ------------------------->
#!/bin/ksh
#----------------------------------------------------------------------
# File Name: sar
# Description: This file allows the user to search and replace a
string
# in a bunch of files.
#
# when using wildcards for the filename, place in quotes
#
# example: sar "old" "new" "*.c"
#
#----------------------------------------------------------------------
search=$1
replace=$2
files=$3
for file in "$files"
do
cp $file $file.bak
sed "s/$search/$replace/g" $file > tempsar
mv tempsar $file
done
<---------------- end cut ------------------------->
The script backs the file up first. You would save this to a text
file, "sar" and make it executable (chmod +x sar). This is obviously
EXTREMELY simple with no error checking but I thought I would throw it
out here as a starting point as there were no replies yet.
