When this action is done, execute 10 or 50 regex is very similar. I think that the replace.py should be able to apply more -fix in the same time. Also, if the -save parameter is active, each -fix should go in a different file. I think that passing an array to -fix and -save to be able to do this. This implementation is only an idea, obviusly ;\) python version.py Pywikipedia trunk/pywikipedia/ \(r11200, 2013/03/09, 11:43:52, OUTDATED\) Python 2.7.3 \(default, Sep 26 2012, 21:51:14\) \[GCC 4.7.2\] config-settings: use\_api = True use\_api\_login = True unicode test: ok
The idea is good, but much more command-line parameters are involved, practically each except -xml and -xmlstart. Do you have any measurements on time consumption?
