sed xml file script help
I have about 1200 xml files I need to deploy from a 6.4 XML version to 9.0 version of a DTD. So I need a sed command to do lots of of replacements of random variables.

The keyword line is <AUTOEDIT EXP then is will have a variable followed by an equals sign. From that point on I need to break the line again.

Example
Code:
<AUTOEDIT EXP="%%S_APP_HOME=APP_HOME=%%G_APP_HOME_PREFIX.pmt/apb"/>  

SED to

<VARIABLE NAME="%%S_APP_HOME" VALUE="APP_HOME=%%G_APP_HOME_PREFIX.pmt/apb" />

I know the last part but I'm stuck on how to handle the unknown variable name part. So its carried over on the replace.

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
inXML=$1
outXML=${inXML:?}.v9.xml

sed -e \
"s/AUTOEDIT EXP=\"[a-z]*[0-9]*=/AUTOEDIT EXP=\"[a-z]*[0-9]*\" VALUE=\"/g" -e \
"s/AUTOEDIT EXP=/VARIABLE NAME=/g" < ${inXML} > ${outXML}

dtd2vim

DTD2VIM(1)							  [FIXME: manual]							DTD2VIM(1)

NAME

       dtd2vim - creates XML data file for Vim7 omni completion from DTDs

SYNOPSIS

       dtd2vim {filename.dtd} [dialectname]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents brieftly the dtd2vim program. For more information see its HTML documentation in
       /usr/share/doc/vim-scripts/html/dtd2vim.html.

       Starting from version 7 Vim supports context aware completion of XML files (and others). In particular, when the file being edited is an
       XML file, completion can be driven by the grammar extracted from a Document Type Definition (DTD).

       For this feature to work the user should put an XML data file corresponding to the desired DTD in a autoload/xml directory contained in a
       directory belonging to Vim's 'runtimepath' (for example ~/.vim/autoload/xml/).

       dtd2vim is the program that creates XML data files from DTDs. Given as input a DTD file.dtd it will create a file.vim XML data file.
       dialectname will be part of dictionary name and will be used as argument for the :XMLns command.

OPTIONS

       None.

SEE ALSO

       vim (1).

       In the Vim online help: :help compl-omni, :help ft-xml-omni, :help :XMLns.

       dtd2vim is fully documented in /usr/share/doc/vim-scripts/html/dtd2vim.html.
