mod_line_edit is a general-purpose filter for text documents. It operates as a
simple on-the-fly line editor, applying search-and-replace rules defined in a
configuration or .htaccess file.
Unlike most of Webthing's filter modules, it is not markup-aware, so it is not
an optimal choice for processing HTML or XML, though it may nevertheless be
used with caution (and may be far better than semi-markup-aware options such as
mod_layout).
For non-markup document types such as plain text, and non-markup Web documents
such as Javascript or Stylesheets, it is the best available option in the
absence of a filter that parses any relevant document structures.
mod_line_edit is written for performance and reliability, and should scale
without problems as document size grows. mod_line_edit is fully compatible with
Apache 2.0 and 2.2, and all operating systems and MPMs.
