Hi,
I’m trying to reformat screenplay dialogue into literary dialogue via grep. Example: *BILL* *I like pizza.* into *“I like pizza” said Bill.* An alternate source to edit would be to use all the hidden characters from Final Draft, eg: <Text>BILL</Text> </Paragraph> <Paragraph Type="Dialogue"> <Text>I like pizza.</Text> Thanks a bunch if anyone can advise how to do this. I’m a noob but I guess I need a wildcard like .* but with a function that includes it in the replace but preserving the unique name and dialogue in each instance. Hope that makes sense.
