spm_changepath.m

function varargout = spm_changepath(Sf, oldp, newp)
% Recursively replace all occurences of a text pattern in a MATLAB variable.
% FORMAT S = spm_changepath(Sf, oldp, newp)
%
% Sf       - MATLAB variable to fix, or char array of MAT filenames,
%            or directory name (all found MAT files will be analysed)
% oldp     - old string to replace
% newp     - new string replacing oldp
%
% S        - updated MATLAB variable (only if Sf is one)
%
% If the pattern is found in a string, any occurence of an invalid file
% separator is replaced to match that of the current system.
%
% If MAT filenames are specified, they will be overwritten with the new
% version. A backup of the initial version is made with a ".old" suffix.
