Friends:

I have a list (file1) of ~1300 words ($1) I wish to replace
to ~1300 other words ($2) in 22 different files...

I csh a foreach i cat file1 | sed {} etc. command would do it.

Can textpad4 do such foreach loop? I have tried a macro
to find and replace each word in each open file,
but I cannot get it to work to the end of file1.

Thanx in advance for you patience.

Unfortunately, TextPad would not be able to perform those operations. The best you could do would be use WildEdit and run it ~1300 times so I'd say your shell script would be the winner for ease of use.

Thanx for info.

Is there a csh, nawk, sed etc. emulator for windows XP ?

If so where ?

Thanx in advance

Thanx.

Have just downloaded Cygwin:

which also seems to be able to
emulate most unix commands.
