I often make keyboard macros for thiese situations.
* make a file, say "foofiles" with one filename (full path is more
general) per line and open it in emacs.
* put the point in the first file name at the beginning of line
* start a keyborad macro with C-x (
* set mark with C-space
* goto EOL with C-e
* kill region with C-w
* press right to move the point to the next begin of line
* open file with C-x C-f
(if you are usin full path, we have to delete suggestion on finding file)
* mark with C-space
* begin of line C-a
* delete (not kill) region with M-x delete-region RET
* yank filename with C-y
* RET to open file
* C-c C-b to beutify
* Save with C-x C-s
(you returned to the initial situation)
* close keyboard macro with C-x )
Now repeat the keyboard macro one to see it it works and if it is OK, then
C-u 2 0 0 C-x e to repeat the keyboard macro 200 times.
Adapt the keybard macro for your needs.
Miguel.
