    trying to make a quick automator script to include with an image build.

    I need it to find a text file, delete everything in it, and replace it with some other text.

    Any suggestions on this, as I'm wracking my brain on it..

    Quick example.
    Text file on desktop.
    Has the words "this is text" in it.

    I need my script to run, and remove everything in the file, and replace it with "it is done"

    Anyone have any help they could throw my way?
