I'm using Textwrangler who falls short when it comes to adding numbers to replacements. I have an xml-file with several strings containg the words:
generatoritem id="Outline Text"
I need to add an incrementing number at the end of each substitution, like so:
generatoritem id="Outline Text1"
So I need to replace 'Outline Text' with 'Outline Text' and an incrementing number.
I found an answer on a similar question and tried to type in this in textwrangler and hit Check Syntax:
perl -ple 's/"Outline Text"/$n++/e' /path/of/file.xml
Plenty of errors.. So I need to be explained this nice one liner. Or perhaps get a new one or a Python script?
