How do you do semantic refactoring in UNIX shell?
With tools. (Can you be less abstract? "Semantic refactoring"
could be all sorts of things-- it's not a well-defined term of
art, so I have no idea what you're really trying to accomplish.)

For example, rename an instance variable, while updating all its
occurrences, including comments. While keeping all other symbols
that happen to use the same name untouched.
Move a method to another class, keeping all references to
imported libraries on the new location.
These are just the tip of the iceberg of what modern refactoring
tools offer.
