Using Sun OS 5.6..and for me the limit for sedfile usage is 199. Not 200 but 199 substitutions. I had a similar exercise once replacing a ceratin field with it's encrypted value - but I had around 10,000 substitutions to complete.

I'm not sure of the limitations on the -e flag...i.e. I have no idea howmany -e's you can have..but this may be high...(although I doubt it would be).

If you knew perl you could compile the similar with one pass of the file...although somewhat more effort to set up.

SYNOPSIS
bool imagesettile (resource $image, resource $tile) DESCRIPTION
imagesettile(3) sets the tile image to be used by all region filling functions (such as imagefill(3) and imagefilledpolygon(3)) when fill- ing with the special color IMG_COLOR_TILED. A tile is an image used to fill an area with a repeated pattern. Any GD image can be used as a tile, and by setting the transparent color index of the tile image with imagecolortransparent(3), a tile allows certain parts of the underlying area to shine through can be created. Note You need not take special action when you are finished with a tile, but if you destroy the tile image, you must not use the IMG_COLOR_TILED color until you have set a new tile image! PARAMETERS
o $ image -An image resource, returned by one of the image creation functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor(3). o $tile - The image resource to be used as a tile. RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure. EXAMPLES
Example #1 imagesettile(3) example <?php // Load an external image $zend = imagecreatefromgif('./zend.gif'); // Create a 200x200 image $im = imagecreatetruecolor(200, 200); // Set the tile imagesettile($im, $zend); // Make the image repeat imagefilledrectangle($im, 0, 0, 199, 199, IMG_COLOR_TILED); // Output image to the browser header('Content-Type: image/png'); imagepng($im); imagedestroy($im); imagedestroy($zend); ?> The above example will output something similar to:[NOT DISPLAYABLE MEDIA]Output of example : imagesettile() PHP Documentation Group IMAGESETTILE(3)
