Subject: replace.py -match option
Original description:
Hello\! It would be nice, if you add -match option to replace.py, that means that script will work only on pages which match some regexp.
Comment 1 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-10-05 04:20:51 UTC 
How would this be different than the "-regex" option that already exists?

Comment 3 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-10-05 04:20:55 UTC 
-regex is used for replacement. How can we solve task such "replace text using some regex if article match some regex"?

Comment 5 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-10-05 04:20:58 UTC 
do you expect sth like -requiretext:XYZ \(in combination with -regex\) which could be the opposite of -excepttext:XYZ, analogous to the existing -requiretitle vs -excepttitle ?
Comment 6 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-10-05 04:21:00 UTC 
Yep, something like that.
