I agree with another poster that the best way to do this is with a 
text editor. Still, there is a solution along the lines of what you tried.

No, you can't define printf to be fprintf(stderr. But you can do the
following:

#define printf fprintf_stderr

int
fprintf_stderr (const char *fmt, ...)
{
   va_list args;
   int ret;

   va_start (args, fmt)
   ret = vfprintf (stderr, fmt, args);
   va_end (args);

   return ret;
}
