(21:33:34) LSchiere: Paco-Paco: can you help me change unkwnown to unknown
in 11 files without opening each one up?
(21:33:40) LSchiere: or at least without doing so manually?
(21:34:14) rizzo: LSchiere: perl
(21:34:20) LSchiere: rizzo: i tried sean's perl and it didn't work
(21:34:31) LSchiere: sean's perl was perl -e "s/unkwnown/unknown/" *.po
(21:34:43) LSchiere: but i don't know enough perl to know what's wrong with
that.
(21:34:53) Paco-Paco: for file in file1 file2 file3; do cat $file | sed -e
's/unkwnown/unknown/g' > $file.tmp && mv $file.tmp $file; done
(21:35:03) LSchiere: Paco-Paco rules
(21:35:16) rizzo: MEH
(21:35:19) Paco-Paco: insert the appropriate files as file1 file2 file3
(21:35:26) hyphenated: sed -i, if you've got v4.0 or higher
(21:35:43) hyphenated: saves the for loop and stuff
(21:35:49) Paco-Paco: if you have gnu sed, yeah
(21:35:57) hyphenated: yes.
(21:35:57) Paco-Paco: I never bother with gnu extensions for those tools


i used *.po :-)
