[REBOL] Combining bits that are the same

From: andrew::martin::colenso::school::nz at: 24-Jul-2003 9:59

Hi! Have a look at these three scripts: ========================== ========================== ====================== ===== ; Mass replace text content in files: Mass_Replace: func [Folder [file!] Target [string!] Replacement [string!]] [ map recursive-read Folder func [File [file!]] [ if %.dmt = extension? File [ probe File write Folder/:File replace/all read Folder/:File Target Replacement ] ] ] Mass_Replace %"/N/CM/documents/2003 T3/" "SEPTEMBER 2002" "September 2003" ========================== ========================== ====================== ===== ; Mass delete of files matching pattern: foreach File recursive-read Folder: %"/C/Rebol/" [ if any [ %Thumbs.db = last Folder_File: split-path File %.bak = extension? last Folder_File ] [ delete Folder/:File probe Folder/:File ] ] ========================== ========================== ====================== ===== ; Mass renaming of files matching pattern: foreach File read Folder: %"/N/CM/documents/2003 T3/" [ if all [ %.dmt = extension? File found? Index: find File Target: "T3 " 1 = index? Index ] [ probe File attempt [rename Folder/:File copy find/tail File Target] ] ] ========================== ========================== ====================== ===== Notice how there are similarities? I'd like to express that similarity in one function with a kind of "programmable" action. I get the feeling that the Unix "GREP" command could be similar to what I want, but I've got no familiarity with Unix or the GREP command. Anyone know if GREP would a good model or goal to work towards with Rebol? Thanks! Andrew J Martin Attendance Officer & Information Systems Trouble Shooter Colenso High School Arnold Street, Napier.
