# Batch Syntax Fix with Line-Based Fallback When regex replacement fails on repeated syntax patterns across 10+ files, write a line-based fixer script that reads/writes line-by-line instead. Test the regex pattern on raw bytes first (`b'...'` notation) to catch invisible whitespace (e.g., `\n\n` vs `\n`). If regex misses edge cases, iterate with simpler patterns or switch to manual line parsing. Verify all files parse cleanly afterward with `ast.parse()` or equivalent before committing.
