Turma2 - Gtk2 search & replace tool

[muggins]

https://launchpad.net/turma2

Utility for searching for and, optionally, replacing strings in both text and binary files. This is a fork of original turma project located at: http://turma.sourceforge.net/software/turma/index.html This fork was made after decision to remove obsolete GTK1 libraries from the AUSTRUMI linux distribution. Seems like original project authors is not supporting it anymore.

Run via Menu>Filesystem>Turma2

Wow, extremely simple ...I may just add a frontend to my one-liner that I use for the same purpose .... I didn't realize there was a need. Brb.

You can get the original GTK1 version here:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... turma-0.1/

Hello Geoffrey,

yes, it probably needs newer gtk2 version. I was unable to get it to compile with either p412 or p431. Or, if you install these:

glib12-1.2.10.pet (53k)
gtk+12-1.2.10.pet (522k)

then the gtk1 version of turma, that amigo mentions, should work. A .pet of the gtk1 version is here: turma.

muggins,

Thanks, this has a nice interface (much better than the original). I tried it in lupu510 and it worked except for the right-click on found items did not go to the folder.

That must be a real long one-liner

That must be a real long one-liner

not realy, here is a simplified version in script form

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
find . -iname \*$3 -exec sed -i "s/"$1"/"$2"/g" {} ';' -print

$1 is what you want to replace
$2 is what you want to replace it with
$3 is the ending of a file (ex. akefile to get Makefile and makefile or .txt to only do text files)

if this is all you want to do, then find is not necessary (i just use simple shell commands to recurse all subdirectories) , but this way maybe someone can add it as an option to pfind if they'd like (which uses various other find parameters)

find . -iname \*$3 -exec sed -i "s/"$1"/"$2"/g" {} ';' -print[/code]

technosaurus,

Thanks that looks quite handy - I think I'll just make that a function and slip it into my .bashrc file.

My comfort level would be much higher with a typical "editor type" search and replace function across files. Enter a file pattern, find word, and replace word; then be presented with a window of grep-like line finds -
FILENAME *line-context...found-word....*
Here, you could individually-or multi-select lines and then do a "Replace ok, Skip, or Replace All".

Regards,
s

That's pretty doable, just store the find results for the filenames separately, then use grep in a loop with sed to get the line numbers and replace (i don't know if busybox sed can be limited to a specific line though ... in case someone is using a pupngo puplet)

[seaside]

Here's a limited protype that just needs a front end.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh

DIR=/etc
SEARCH=copyright
REPLACE=Copyright

#################

grep -R $SEARCH $DIR >/tmp/finds

while read -r line
    do
    Xdialog --center --title "Mutiple file search and replace"  --ok-label "Replace" --cancel-label "Skip" --combobox "Replace $SEARCH with $REPLACE"  800x100 "$line" 
    RETVAL=$?
    if [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ]; then
		FN=`echo $line | cut -d: -f1 `
		sed -i "s/$SEARCH/$REPLACE/g" "$FN"
    fi
        
    if [ $RETVAL -eq 255 ]; then
		exit
    fi
done < /tmp/finds
 

This is probably better in Gtkdialog- at least you get more buttons there.

Cheers,
s
