Here is an AWK script that may help you. You can download GNU AWK from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ezwinports/files/gawk-4.1.3-w32-bin.zip/download
# ************************************************************************** # AWK script to replace all occurences of FindStr with RepStrNNN. # Output files are the same name as the input files with ".ed" appended. # # Run it like this: gawk -f .\thisScript.awk <files to be edited> # # If this file is saved as repAll.awk in the current directory, and the # files to be edited are in directory c:\fileDir, then: # # gawk -f .\repAll.awk c:\fileDir\* # # ************************************************************************** BEGIN { # If FindStr contains any characters that have special regex meaning, # they must be prefaced with "\". For example: "Needed\* Here".
