Description : A quick, light and effective text replacement tool
ReplaceIt was written as a quick, light and effective replacement to the
combination of sed/awk/grep/head/tail and other such shell utilities, as
well as being quicker in startup (at least) than an equivilant Perl
solution.
ReplaceIt has various rules which can be used to enhance its abilities
when negotiating tricky sections of text, whilst searching for the right
one to replace, these include [ on same line ] string inclusion
dependence, exclusion dependence, pre-existance, post-existance.
NOTE: ReplaceIt is a line-by-line file parser, so, it cannot (at this
point) process across multiple \n[\r] terminated lines.
