I have a folder full of .html files and I need to go through and replace in each and every one of them a couple of bits of info. I know I can do this using the following from the command line: sed 's/VV, ppp-ppp/81, 51-67/' file.html > newfile.html | mv newfile.html file.html Problem is I need to do this on nearly 200 files. I assume it could be done with a script, but I have zero experience in writing scripts. I've looked through a few how-to's but haven't found anything I understand sofar. I want to learn how to script, but my Prof want's this done yesterday as the associated paper has just been published. Cheers Matt -- %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Dr. Matthew R.
