Subject: How to apply a list of regex replaces to multiple files?
Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2008 18:50:24 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <091f39ab-89ac-438f-a878-464309c4a8f6@i18g2000prn.googlegroups.com> (raw)
I've browsed the messages here and have googled but don't see a clear
solution yet. I have about 900 documents to which I need to apply a
list of maybe 40 separate regex search and replaces. I would like to
feed a list of the regex expressions and replacements to emacs and
have it applied to a directory of the files. Any solutions? Keyboard
macros don't seem like the right solution....
