Mind being a bit more specific when you say "It's not working"? My initial test worked but I probably missed a number of things.

What mod did you try to convert and what happened when you converted it?

But all you need to do is press ctrl+H and replace "tech" with "stuff" and then "shard" with "gib".

You don't need an exe

15 seconds compared to a couple of minutes sounds good to me, not necessary but more time can be spent on other things.

Which one is a couple of minutes?
The .exe or the text version?

Because, timing myself, using the "find and replace" command on notepad took 27 seconds.

Or you can do what I did and add in old materials? Yay for science.

I have done that as well, so you shouldn't jump to conclusions.

Has it occured to you that rather than taking every post in every thread even mildly related to what you had been saying is not necessarily a personal insult?

It obviously hasn't, so let's check for something else.

Has it occured to you that Pyrorex was speaking to the original poster, or even Metalchao? Just because a reply happened to follow yours doesn't mean that it was directed at you.

Yay for science.

Has it occurred to you that I didn't take it as an insult and was just stating that I had done so as well?

It obviously hasn't, so let's check for something else.

Has it occurred to you that I was also stating that other people (read: not just me) may have done the same and that you shouldn't insult peoples mental abilities* based on something that you don't know?

Just because someone happened to quote someone and express their opinion doesn't mean that you should lecture somebody.

I have done that as well, so you shouldn't jump to conclusions.
