Originally 20 years ago the Lyrics were RTF files with DOC extensions that even if you downloaded them, you could not open them. ha ha So you can imagine after some repair to these files I am impressed. I made most of the site mobile friendly & installed many MP3 players on the artists pages.

All pretty much retired players who had all pretty much played with groups you grew up listening to. Some good ole music.

Thank You Mr. PeterJones & I will definitely be learning some Perl from your example!

using a macro together with the clipboard is only useful if you need the current string over and over again.
A macro doesn’t save the action “get clipbaord content”, it saves the real string which is in the clipboard at that time.
You can check this in the shortcuts.xml file.

If you had gnu/linux like commands in your path (for example, GnuWin32 from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages.html, or using git-bash, or windows 10 pro’s new linux subsystem), it could probably be done through the command line, using a for loop and an in-place sed command.

If you wanted a standalone programming language route (like Perl, Python, or Lua), here is an example Perl script I just whipped up in a few minutes, using strawberry perl. (I made it verbose, so that it was easily commented, so you could translate to another language of your choice, if you don’t have/want a perl interpreter):

#!perl
# assuming you saved this script as c:\path\to\script.pl
# assuming strawberry perl [https://strawberryperl.com/] (or similar) is in your path
# open cmd.exe in the directory with the files, and run
#       perl c:\path\to\script.pl
use autodie;    # open and similar commands will give meaningful errors automatically

foreach $f ( <*.html> ) {                   # loop through the filenames in the current directory
    my $ft = $f;                            # grab the name of the file
        $ft =~ s/.html//;                   #   remove the .html at the end
        $ft =~ s/(?-i)\S\K([A-Z])/ $1/g;    #   look for all capitals with a non-space character before it, and put a space before  -- this is using a regular expression syntax similar to Notepad++'s PCRE syntax
        warn "ft => $ft\n";
    open my $in_fh, '<', $f;                # open the current file for input
    open my $out_fh, '>', "$f.tmp";         # open a .tmp for output
    local $/ = "<title>";                   # we'll tell perl to grab everything until the first <title> start...
    my $str = <$in_fh>;                     # ... and grab it ...
    print {$out_fh} $str;                   # ... and print it to the output
    $/ = "</title>";                        # now we want to grab until the end of this </title>
    $str = <$in_fh>;                        # grab until the end  </title>
    print {$out_fh} "$ft</title>";          #
    $/ = "\n";                              # now grab normal lines...
    print {$out_fh} $_ while $_ = <$in_fh>; # pipe through the rest of the file unchanged
    close $out_fh;
    close $in_fh;
    rename("$f.tmp", $f);                   # rename .tmp to the original name...
}
