Since version 0.4, it support the wildcards (* and ?), and since the 0.5.1.0, they are also supported in the replace string. For example, you can search for the following text: "webserver*.htm" and replace it with "apache*.html" inside all files you want. KFileReplace is written for Linux, used with KDE (K Desktop Environment), and with KDevelop. It was ported to KDE 2 in Decembre 1999, and to KDE 3 in April 2002. Please, report all bug you find to the author, by writing an e-mail to him, with the following subject: "KFileReplace bug report (version w.x.y.z)" If you have ideas about new features which could be added to a new version, you can send them nto the author. To compile it, run these commands in a terminal: ./configure && make && make install type "rm config.cache" before if you have problems Welcome to everybody who want to help the KFileReplace project. There are many ways to do it: writing translations from english of the text used inside the source code, writing C++ code with new features, drawing new icons, writing documentation (in SGML format), translating SGML documentations into another languages... Please, download the last version of KFileReplace before doing anything: it would be not useful to translate an old version, and ask the author is the work is not already done, or not being done. To translate: - To regenerate the po/kfilereplace.pot file, you must type in terminal: xgettext -C -s -ki18n -x/opt/kde/include/kde.pot *.cpp *.h -o../po/kfilereplace.pot (if /opt/kde is your KDE directory) - To compile the PO file file to a usable GMO file, type for example: msgfmt fr.po -ofr.gmo
