Re: Find and Replace

Try this: ---cut--- ################### # Finds all *.inc from current directory and rename then to *.inc.php # then edit that file and replace all references to it as well # I haven't tested this, but it should work, but don't be a dumbass and not make a backup copy # of your files before running it :-) # Note: You may need to escape the $ symbols (\$) in the perl command (I don't remember) #################### #!/bin/sh for file in find . -name '*.inc' | awk -F. {print $1} do echo "Processing $file.inc" mv $file.inc $file.inc.php perl -i -pe 's/$file.inc/$file.inc.php/g' $file.inc.php done ---cut--- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shrout, Ryan" <Rshrout@krauss-maffeicorp.com> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Monday, July 30, 2001 3:06 PM Subject: [PHP] Find and Replace > This isn't exactly PHP I need help with, but it relates to what I learned > about security.
