Hello all!

I've run into a bit of a problem and I was hoping someone out there in
TV-Land might know the right tool for the job.

I have a group of 6 scripts that I need to do multiple find and replace
operations on.  Basically the find and replace operations are all simple
'change all instances of "cat" to "dog"' type operations, but I have
upwards of 400 of these searches that I need to be performed against each
of these 6 scripts.  The thought of doing that manually gives me the
willies, and it would take a lot of time.  I'd really like something I
could just feed lists of variables into and let it go to town, even if it
only did it for one file at a time.

I know that I could probably grep this all up pretty nicely (if I knew
how), but I'm kinda stuck with Wintel tools.  Anyone out there come across
any Wintel tools to batch lots of text file find and replace operations?

Thanks!
