Replace on Different Line Than Find?:
Here's a way to do it using a UNIX filter on an open BBEdit document:
(Filename: "p.pl")
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my $year;
while (<>){
m~^(movieY.+)([0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9])[ \t]?~i and $year = " ($2)";
s~^(title.*)~$1$year~;
print;
}
As expected, the above works as a Unix filter in BBEdit.
This line:
m~^(movieY.+)([0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9])[ \t]?~i and $year = " ($2)";
appears to set the var $year to the four digits within parentheses.
What does the "[ \t]?~i " part do?
In terminal, the output goes to STDOUT. How would I get it to replace
in place, updating the file?
