Warren,

There's a command in linux (can't remember the name right now) that actu=
ally looks inside
files for text strings. I *think* it is used along with the find command=
 IIRC.

What ever you use IMHO it will be really resource intensive because the =
script / command
etc. will have to go through all the files of your system searching and =
then possibly
replacing the string with another.

Just out of interest what are your keywords? Are the files going to be a=
ny specific type?

Regards,

Matt
