Hi,
I have a file with about 60 lines of path:
app-defaults/boxXYZ.......
I want to change this to /my/path/goes/here/app-defaults/boxXYZ, but of course vi doesn't like the regualr :s/old/new/ command.
Is there any other quick way to do this?
Thanks ;) (2 Replies)

autom4te
AUTOM4TE(1) User Commands AUTOM4TE(1)
NAME
autom4te - Generate files and scripts thanks to M4
SYNOPSIS
autom4te [OPTION] ... [FILES]
DESCRIPTION
Run GNU M4 on the FILES, avoiding useless runs. Output the traces if tracing, the frozen file if freezing, otherwise the expansion of the
FILES.
If some of the FILES are named `FILE.m4f' they are considered to be M4 frozen files of all the previous files (which are therefore not
loaded). If `FILE.m4f' is not found, then `FILE.m4' will be used, together with all the previous files.
Some files may be optional, i.e., will only be processed if found in the include path, but then must end in `.m4?'; the question mark is
not part of the actual file name.
Operation modes:
-h, --help
print this help, then exit
-V, --version
print version number, then exit
-v, --verbose
verbosely report processing
-d, --debug
don't remove temporary files
-o, --output=FILE
save output in FILE (defaults to `-', stdout)
-f, --force
don't rely on cached values
-W, --warnings=CATEGORY
report the warnings falling in CATEGORY
-l, --language=LANG
specify the set of M4 macros to use
-C, --cache=DIRECTORY
preserve results for future runs in DIRECTORY
--no-cache
disable the cache
-m, --mode=OCTAL
change the non trace output file mode (0666)
-M, --melt
don't use M4 frozen files
Languages include:
`Autoconf'
create Autoconf configure scripts
`Autotest'
create Autotest test suites
`M4sh' create M4sh shell scripts
`M4sugar'
create M4sugar output
Warning categories include:
`cross'
cross compilation issues
`gnu' GNU coding standards (default in gnu and gnits modes)
`obsolete'
obsolete features or constructions
`override'
user redefinitions of Automake rules or variables
`portability'
portability issues
`syntax'
dubious syntactic constructs (default)
`unsupported'
unsupported or incomplete features (default)
`all' all the warnings
`no-CATEGORY'

`none' turn off all the warnings
`error'

The environment variable `WARNINGS' is honored.
Library directories:
-B, --prepend-include=DIR

-I, --include=DIR
append directory DIR to search path
Tracing:
-t, --trace=MACRO
report the MACRO invocations
-p, --preselect=MACRO
prepare to trace MACRO in a future run
Freezing:
