In all the files in my project, where a certain string of characters is present, I'm trying to replace a string with the a part of the file name containing said string.
For example, files are called ace[1-12].xml, and for everytime there is a the block: "mc\d+(.*\n.*True)" I want to replace mc\d+ with tf0(number prefix from filename). I know this hits on a couple more adavanced concepts I don't have a full grasp on yet, but this editor is goading me on to learn regex and basic command line skills...
The command I have now is:
Save: nothing
Command: eval arr=("$TM_SELECTED_FILES") for (( i = 0; i < ${#arr[ <at> ]}; i++ )); do perl -pe 'while ($string =~ m/mc\d+(.*\n.*True)/g) {$string =~ s/mc\d+/tf$TM_FILENAME/g;}'; done
Input: Entire Doc
Output: Replace selected text
It's choking big time... any pointers to the numerous places I'm screwing up?
Thanks~
