s// All Files In Directory

[perl.j]

Hello!

So here is my problem: I want to go through all of the file in a directory, and s/5/6/.

How can I open all of the file in the directory, and substitute all of the 5s for 6s?

perldoc perlrun yields the answer to your question. Have a look for -pi.

Cheers, Sören
