On BSD, I've been running runsed with sedscr for many years.
The sedscr would have a line like s/abc/ABC/
The runsed script I'll paste below. The command would be runsed filename
I just don't know how to get sed.exe to work. The main problem is setting the permissions in Window10. I try right-clicking the sed icon on my desktop and clicking Run as administrator but still does not work.
And I am hoping once that is cleared up, a command like this will work at DOS command line: sed s/abc/ABC/ filename
And beyond that: sed s/abc/ABC/ *.html
Is there hope?
for x
do
echo "editing $x: \c"
if test "$x" = sedscr; then
echo "Not editing sedscript!"
elif test -s $x; then
sed -f sedscr $x > /tmp/$x
if test -s /tmp/$x
then
cmp -s $x /tmp/$x && echo "File not changed: \c"; cp /tmp/$x $x;echo "Done."
else
echo "Sed produced an empty file -- check sedqscript"
fi
else
echo "original file in empty"
fi
done
echo "all done."
