I need! A Batch html Text editor

[BaldFucker]

I am not even sure if I am explaining this properly. I need to be able to open lets say 100 html pages just in Text and do a "Find And Replace". Dreamweaver takes forever, and I can only do about 30 at a time.

If anyone can make sense of what I am looking for and can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

Post it here...

ICQ Me, Email Me Whatever.

Thank you,

Notepad++ can do this with ease.

I've been using EditPad for years. The "Lite" version is completely free, no nag screens, advertising, etc. And it has a fantastic search and replace function that can find and replace entire file contents, or blocks of text/code or your simple basic word/line replaces.

The Pro version is very nice as well. It's all I use for everything, from CSS to code.

If you have any software experience I can recommend to write a small script to loop through these files and perform a search and replace
The most free way would be this.

I am offering you about 50-100$ of my time for free here in this post.

You will need to have python installed on your computer. ( python.org )

In Python, you can do the following to read your local directory (means you run this script from within the folder that contains all your html files) , read each file, and do the search and replace into a new HTML prefixed with "NEW_". in this sample, it replaces the letter x with y

here is the code (cant pate urls) gist.github.com/anonymous/291d8a1fea990b604e92

Copy paste that into a script named "somescript.py" and drop it into the folder that contains these 100's of html files, you should see new ones be created after it runs with the prefix NEW_ in the filename so you can know which is which.

Hope this works for u!
