#5 configuration file

[Jean-Georges Estiot]

I suggest the inclusion of a feature where input from a text
file would result in a semi-automated run. The file would
have the format:

#config
property=value
property=value

#replace
"search" = "replace"
"search" = "replace"
...

An example or property would be subdir=yes for including
sub folders in the search or sensitive=yes for a case
sensitive search/replace.

Upon loading the program, the user would be able to
specify a configuration file, set a starting path and press
<go> instead of having to type all the search and replace
text.

A typical example of such use is the resolution of templates
where key areas have been replaced by fields such as
[EMAIL] or [NAME]. The #replace area of the configuration
file would read as follows:

"[EMAIL]" = "me@here.com"
"[NAME]" = "me"

Simple parsing but a very effective features.

Cheers guys,

JG's suggestion is great. That is exactly what I'm looking for
too. I need to do hundreds of replacements and it's very
tedious to have to run the program manually each time.
Nonetheless, it's a great utility. Thanks for making it free!
