use a for-loop in your shell:
# bash
# cd to/your/directory
# for i in *; do
# nobom.sh $i > $i.new
# done
this will take all your files in your directory and proceed each one it
with nobom.sh, which then will write it to new file.
Be sure that your perlscript points to your perl installation on your
system. You can use 'which perl' to get the location of your perl
installation.
Cheers Erik
