I just wanted to ask what is the best way to batch edit nodes in many 
nuke-scripts.

Just a simplified theoretical example.:
You got a project (1000 Shots) and every shot has a final nuke script. This 
nuke script consists of: read -> blur -> write
The Blur-size is set to 10.

Now i want to increase the blur for all shots on 20.

Possible ways i see  to achieve this by scripting:

* open every nuke script in "terminal mode" with python parameters that change 
the value
* run a function in GUI nuke that opens the first script, changes the value, 
saves it and goes on with the next script. all in one nuke window
* edit the *.nk-files like with an texteditor programmatically and change the 
values in the nuke file itself

So my questions are:

* Are there any other (better) ways to do batch editing?
* What speaks against or for my different possibilities? What way would you 
prefer?
* I ve never used way 1 or 3 but the idea of way 3 seems to be the coolest 
(fastest) way to me?
* Would HIERO change the way to do this?

Actually im still new to NUKE and Python and it s difficult to get help on 
practical application of all these possibilities.
So i really would be glad on any hint.
Thanks in advance.
