Requirement from work was to refactor an 8000 line if elseif code block to select case syntax. Not a manual task, even for a 1984 olympics button bashing champ.

note, id is the test variable here,
as in
elseif (id ="test") then ...


Copy this code and paste it in your HTML
  1. search for: elseif\s*\(\s*id\s*=\s*([0-9]+)\s*\)\s*then
  2.  
  3. replace with: case "$1" \n
