Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Find command + replace the extension (.xxx) by * Post 302996224 by MadeInGermany on Friday 21st of April 2017 02:34:01 PM

My previous post missed the replacement * in sed 's/[.][^.]*$/*/'.
But still this is different from the original while loop: it does not add the * when there is no .xxxx extension.

BTW your last post has ICODE tags instead of Code tags. The latter work much better for multi-line code blocks.
