Odd search and replace question

[CSmith]

My boss has asked me to figure out how to use a text file to set the filter settings for TextPipePro. I am including an example of the text file, for ease of discussion:

[Script for Search and Replace]
[Options]

"rbod"
[Search /iw]
"job title"
[Replace]
"titl"
[Search /iw]
"coverletter"
[Replace]
"abs"
[Path]
C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\resumepost\rawresumes\helpwanted\*.*
[End of Search and Replace Script]

I am not sure what software was being used to generate these search and replace filters, as i was not a part of the staff at that time.

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration on this matter.

Hi Chris,

That file isn't one that is used or understood by TextPipe, but you can certainly use a text file to load filter settings into TextPipe. Just check the help under the Command line settings.
