Hi!

In replace.py, current version 8920, line 444:

if not page.canBeEdited():

should change to

if not self.articles and not page.canBeEdited():

The reason is that with the new -save/-savenew options (introduced in rev 8700) we may use replace.py for gathering titles, and that's what I am doing in the minute. I want to collect titles from fr, es, de Wikipedias rather than my home wiki, but they seem not to allow edits without botflag. I don't need a flag and I won't change anything there, only save titles from those wikis, but the current line 444 prevents me of doing that. self.articles is not None iff -save or -savenew option is used, which means we don't edit the wiki.

Another issue is with line 843,
titlefile = codecs.open(filename, encoding='utf-8',
mode=(lambda x: x and 'a' or 'w')(append))
I tested my original version which had an IF here as far as I remember, and you turned it to lambda function. But somehow the -save option behaves now just as -savenew does, i.e. overwrites the old file instead of appending. Could you please help?
