[Sprites] Need a suggestion for Source Replacement

For example, the disassembly for "Super Mario Bros. 2 (U) [PRG0]" (currently updated by a user named "kmck" on Github), as well as the disassembly for "Super Mario Bros. 3 (U) [PRG1]" by Southbird, currently has an array of: also known as: making sprites not portable to any other semi-compatible system, with some work, such as SNES or PC-Engine...

That part was the easy part, The Stupid things I hate most that the disassembly: is that the sprites are supposed to be something like this (on the NES/Famicom):



The thing was to replace every "sprite DMA" store and load ($02xx) to all those, but I need a favor, In order to fork both disassemblies (or/and submit them to the author's cache of submissions/addenums) I need a special editor suggestion to try to get these done, If not, This may hurt...

Just so you know, There ARE LOTS of entrys for these sprite DMA things...

Thanks.

I didn't really get what you're looking for, but you can do surprisingly much with a text editor that can search&replace regular expressions (e.g. Notepad++).

For example, to replace any lda instruction followed by an sta instruction with ldx and stx, respectively, replace (.*)lda(.*\r?\n.*)sta(.*) with \1ldx\2stx\3 (assuming . doesn't match newlines).

These disassemblies are using the wrong formatting conventions, This is an example of what was done for both:

Code Snippet 2 - RAM:


Code Snippet 2 - ROM:


They just have to be reformatted to new names, Simply to make things better to understand.
