Okay so if I'm following all this correctly..

1 You've got 10 text files which have almost all the same information in each file, except for two lines which contain a path.
2 These two lines with the path names on them are not necessarily on the same line each time you copy a file and edit it, presumably because each of the 10 text files is set up slightly differently..

Maybe a loop..? In ksh:
Code:
cd "your/dir"
echo "Enter the two directories:"
read dirOne
read dirTwo
for FILE in `ls`
do
  foundFirstDir="no"
  while read LINE
  do
    echo $LINE | grep -q "/"
    if [[ $? -eq 0 ]]
    then
      if [[ $foundFirstDir = "no" ]]
        then
        echo $dirOne >> ${FILE}_new
        foundFirstDir="yes"
      else
        echo $dirTwo >> ${FILE}_new
      fi
    else
      echo $LINE >> ${FILE}_new
    fi
  done < $FILE
done

Basically, I'm assuming the only lines in the entire file that will contain a backslash are the two lines that contain the paths on them.. is it safe to make this assumption?
