i primarily use ms notepad, but i have emacs, kwrite,
ms wordpad, and ms word 2003 available. i realize that
ms word has a replace operation that can change
aes -> aes!
but the notes in the .ly were exported by rosegarden 4
so they have varying numbers of apostrophes and commas
and if i don't figure out how to use wilcards, i will
be stuck with about 50 replacement operations, highly
subject to error.
did you have a specific text editor in mind that can
do this efficiently?
