Thanks, everyone. I'm afraid I didn't make myself clear... I am often using Text Factories (usually just 5-10 GREP replacements) to convert files from one format to another. These Text Factories work as they should. However, this will modify the respective documents (in memory) and then (optionally) save them to disk, _replacing_ the original files. Now let's assume I have 40 XML files that I converted into HTML. After running the Text Factory, I have to go to the Finder, change the file extension to ".html", and then I can validate my files. Now if something went wrong, I need to create another copy of the original XML file and start again. I am testing rather complex text factories here, which I sometimes need to modify on the fly. It would just be nice if I could tweak a text factory, have it process the files in folder A and write the converted files to folder B, without having to copy or rename files manually.
