Multiple Search Replace

Multiple search replace is a command line tool that allows you to search and replace multiple strings in a single file. The search and replace keywords are stored in a datafile so that you can re-run the same search and replace sequence multiple times.

Usage: MSR sourcefile datafile

The format of a line in the datafile is like this:

Source,Target,Case sensitive,Description

• Source is the source data. You can use any sequence of ascii characters.
• Replace is the replace data. You can use any sequence of ascii characters.
• Case sensitive determines if the search should be done case sensitive. Use 1 for case sensitive and 0 for non-case sensitive
• Description allows you to put a description on the line.

You can have multiple lines in the datafile.

After searching and replacing, the new file will have the extention _replaced added. For example: myfile.txt will become myfile_replaced.txt
