I'm looking for a shell script, C program, or anything that will do the
following conversions on a large number of C source files:

1) Convert all variables spelled "my_var" to "myVar"
2) Convert all procedures named "My_Procedure" to "MyProcedure"
3) Convert all variable types to a custome typedef:              
   (Example:  convert "char" to "UBYTE" or convert "short" to "UINT")
4) Leave constants alone (MY_CONSTANT)

The script/program must work reliably enough that minimal or no editing needs
to be done to correct mistakes since many source files are involved.  I
expect these types of things have been done before and it would be nice to
take advantage of existing solutions of this problem.

Thanks in Advance.
