Batch Conversion of Frame Referenced Graphic Calls

I also wrote/have a simple DOS command window program to change occurrences of text (no wildcards) in large numbers of files at a time. If anyone wants it, please send me an e-mail off-list.

Just please remember that not all matches (for example, to match ".tif") may be what you expect ... :) Hence, one suggestion when using my program: make a copy of all the files elsewhere before you start. And, in "verbose" mode (one of the options to the program), my program will tell you all the changes it made. :)
