My version of replace.py, I think modified sometime in 2009:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
"""
This bot will make direct text replacements. It will retrieve information on
which pages might need changes either from an XML dump or a text file, or only
change a single page.
These command line parameters can be used to specify which pages to work on:
¶ms;
-xml Retrieve information from a local XML dump (pages-articles
or pages-meta-current, see http://download.wikimedia.org).
Argument can also be given as "-xml:filename".
-page Only edit a specific page.
Argument can also be given as "-page:pagetitle". You can
give this parameter multiple times to edit multiple pages.
Furthermore, the following command line parameters are supported:
-regex Make replacements using regular expressions. If this argument
isn't given, the bot will make simple text replacements.
-nocase Use case insensitive regular expressions.
-dotall Make the dot match any character at all, including a newline.
Without this flag, '.' will match anything except a newline.
-multiline '^' and '$' will now match begin and end of each line.
-xmlstart (Only works with -xml) Skip all articles in the XML dump
before the one specified (may also be given as
-xmlstart:Article).
-addcat:cat_name Adds "cat_name" category to every altered page.
-excepttitle:XYZ Skip pages with titles that contain XYZ. If the -regex
argument is given, XYZ will be regarded as a regular
expression.
-requiretitle:XYZ Only do pages with titles that contain XYZ. If the -regex
argument is given, XYZ will be regarded as a regular
expression.
-excepttext:XYZ Skip pages which contain the text XYZ. If the -regex
argument is given, XYZ will be regarded as a regular
expression.
-exceptinside:XYZ Skip occurences of the to-be-replaced text which lie
within XYZ. If the -regex argument is given, XYZ will be
regarded as a regular expression.
-exceptinsidetag:XYZ Skip occurences of the to-be-replaced text which lie
within an XYZ tag.
-summary:XYZ Set the summary message text for the edit to XYZ, bypassing
the predefined message texts with original and replacements
inserted.
-sleep:123 If you use -fix you can check multiple regex at the same time
in every page. This can lead to a great waste of CPU because
the bot will check every regex without waiting using all the
resources. This will slow it down between a regex and another
in order not to waste too much CPU.
-fix:XYZ Perform one of the predefined replacements tasks, which are
given in the dictionary 'fixes' defined inside the file
fixes.py.
The -regex and -nocase argument and given replacements will
be ignored if you use -fix.
Currently available predefined fixes are:
&fixes-help;
-always Don't prompt you for each replacement
-recursive Recurse replacement as long as possible. Be careful, this
might lead to an infinite loop.
-allowoverlap When occurences of the pattern overlap, replace all of them.
Be careful, this might lead to an infinite loop.
other: First argument is the old text, second argument is the new
text. If the -regex argument is given, the first argument
will be regarded as a regular expression, and the second
argument might contain expressions like \\1 or \g<name>.
Examples:
If you want to change templates from the old syntax, e.g. {{msg:Stub}}, to the
new syntax, e.g. {{Stub}}, download an XML dump file (pages-articles) from
http://download.wikimedia.org, then use this command:
python replace.py -xml -regex "{{msg:(.*?)}}" "{{\\1}}"
If you have a dump called foobar.xml and want to fix typos in articles, e.g.
Errror -> Error, use this:
python replace.py -xml:foobar.xml "Errror" "Error" -namespace:0
If you have a page called 'John Doe' and want to fix the format of ISBNs, use:
python replace.py -page:John_Doe -fix:isbn
This command will change 'referer' to 'referrer', but not in pages which
talk about HTTP, where the typo has become part of the standard:
python replace.py referer referrer -file:typos.txt -excepttext:HTTP
