Like this?
<code>
import sys,fileinput
for line in fileinput.input(inplace=True):
sys.stdout.write(line.replace('mike','dave'))
</code>
Sample session:
C:\TEMP>type foo.txt
this line tells about mike and john
this second line says nothing
goodbye mike!
C:\TEMP>python chgit.py foo.txt
C:\TEMP>type foo.txt
this line tells about dave and john
this second line says nothing
goodbye dave!
