Be careful! I have been experimenting with just this approach and ChatGPT 4 often forgets important parts of the code when generating the new files. If you ask ChatGPT to break down every change into step-by-step changes with code examples, it does a really great job and you can check every change yourself before implementing it.

A good prompt is key. If pasting code make sure to run it through the tokenizer first to make sure it’s not too long. Be very descriptive about what you want it to do. If it goes off the rails just hit the stop button and then edit your prompt with the little edit button at the top right and try again, this saves on context length and it saves the previous prompt and response so you can switch between them and compare.
