Batch replace color without using swatch as source

I've searched these forums and the rest of the web trying to find a method to do this... Actions don't cut it (if Actions were able to record the "replace color" dialoge it would be fine) so I've turned to scripts, but I have almost no knowlege on this.

 

I checked out this thread:

and it is very close, except that it assumes that there is a named swatch as the source color - which there isn't.

 

The script I tried was .JS

 

I'm trying to have the script run on a bunch of .eps files in a folder:

- Select object which has specified CMYK value (0,7,34,10)

- Replace fill color of the selected object with another CMYK value (5,19,36,0)

- Save over the existing .eps

- Close

- Make coffee (optional)

 

Also, any books you can recommend for learning this stuff? For a noob.
