Do not rename files, only content?

Possible to only rename the contents of files, and not the file names themselves?
I don't understand how --literal
works, e.g.
python /Users/storm/bin/repren --dry-run --literal -i --from='light.mini_sov' --to='light.bedroom_mini' test
Dry run: No files will be changed
Using 1 patterns:
'light\.mini\_sov' IGNORECASE -> 'light.bedroom_mini'
Why does the from
escape the dots, while the to
doesn`t?
I've tried including -i and --literal twice, but to no avail :)

Forget it, I should have tried more before posting :)
Default is to find and replace content only, not rename.
I must have been tired. Of course only the to
needs -i and --literal.
Works like a charm!
Closing #26 due to RTFM.
