Incrementing a record number by 1 using grep?
Is it possible to increment a sequence number automatically by 1? I have an XML file that gets appended to throughout the year. It contains a growing series of records, each with an ID numbered like this: Id444/Id I can create most of the next record using a Text Factory (by copying the previous record). But I want to change the 444 to 445 so that the new record is numbered: Id445/Id Any ideas?

Re: how do we grep find NOT such-and-such literal *sequence* of chars
Also I want to ask - is this BBEdit Talk group OK territory for these kinds of grep Q's? Of course if it is specific to BBedit then that is obvious, but is there some more appropriate list/group to discuss regex behavior (assuming the engine they discuss matches the behavior of BBedit's)? -G --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BBEdit Talk group.
