Re: command lineIn place edit with a filter

Well I figure I have to use something like xargs but any idea on how to achieve it on windows? - since we don't have xargs :-(

Finally, I wrote a script using File::Recurse but a one liner would be cool. Thanks in advance.

`for /R %f in (*.dsp) do perl -ibak -pe "s#\bGPP\b#Arjun#i;" %f` Not quite xargs ;-) 'for' will do much more than it used to. The '/R' makes for look recursively in each subdirectory.	[reply] [d/l]
