Changing toolpalette tool paths with lisp?

Hi,

is there a easy way to change the paths that tools have in toolpalettes?

 

We have a lot of blocks etc that are linked to a certain systematically named path. Now we have decided to change one folder name in the directory -> we need to update the links in the toolpalettes. I was wondering, wether it would be possible to run some kind of lisp, that would check the tools in the toolpalettes: if they are blocks, check if the blocks has a certain string in the path and change it to some other...

 

Any help is appreciated!

 

Have a nice weekend!

If you need this feature, write this function.

But if you don't need this function every day, search and replace it by hand (with a good texteditor)

*.atc are simple ascii files, nothing more.

If I could I'd buy you a beer due to it being friday and you pointing out the obvious so quickly!

 

Cheers for the help (my brain was too tired to realize the solution...)!

Nobody wrote about wssave and it has nothing to do with the topic, or?
