Large file search & replace

Post by newdrive »

Good Day!

I have a XML file containing a large amount of different data and wish to replace 500 unique values within it with 500 different unique values.

Is there a way (using Text Crawler) to achieve this in a more efficient manner then doing a search/replace 500 different times? (perhaps either using two seperate files "old" and "new" or even Regex or some other method ?)

Cheers!!

Is this just one file? In this case TextCrawler won't be much help as you'd still have to set up the 500 replace operations somehow. You can specify multiple replacements in the batch mode - it would still have to be set up manually though.
