deleting characters in multiple files?

I want to modify a large number of files (400+).

I can semi-automate this as follows by recording the keystrokes: (1)find
a particular word, (2)delete a character that follows that world,
(3)repeat for a second instance of the character, (4)save the file, and
(5)load the next file in the list.

This is pretty quick for half a dozen files but not for over 400. I feel
sure there must be some way to fully automate this (perhaps with argdo?)
but I can't figure out how. Is it possible?
