I don't know very well what are the differences between the 2 codes, but
I think that is possible to use a recursive bash script to automatically
replace lines that have to be replaced and go.
I thought at something like this:
#!/bin/bash

for i in `grep -R "text that is in files to be replaced" elks/* | cut
-f1-1 -d ":"`
do
sed -i -e 's,old code,new code,g' $i
sed -i -e 's,old code,new code,g' $i
...
done

It is a good idea?
I hope yes.
