Oh, that doesn't sound automated, it's a lot of work. I had 28 files in 
the outdated patch, and there will be more, as noted Paul. And in the 
other patch, which I did not send as it turned out to be obsolete 
(which was replacing [0-9] with [[:digit:]]) I had around 4xx changed 
files. No way one could manually go through 400 files, stop by each 
change, and press a hotkey.
