Hi,
I have a file with about 60 lines of path:
app-defaults/boxXYZ.......
I want to change this to /my/path/goes/here/app-defaults/boxXYZ, but of course vi doesn't like the regualr :s/old/new/ command.
Is there any other quick way to do this?
Thanks ;) (2 Replies)

canonpath
No physical check on the filesystem, but a logical cleanup of a path. On UNIX eliminated successive slashes and successive "/.".
splitpath
($volume,$directories,$file) = File::Spec->splitpath( $path );
($volume,$directories,$file) = File::Spec->splitpath( $path, $no_file );
Splits a path in to volume, directory, and filename portions. Assumes that the last file is a path unless the path ends in '/', '/.', '/..'
or $no_file is true. On Win32 this means that $no_file true makes this return ( $volume, $path, undef ).
Separators accepted are and /.
Volumes can be drive letters or UNC sharenames (\servershare).
The results can be passed to "catpath" to get back a path equivalent to (usually identical to) the original path.
splitdir
The opposite of catdir().
@dirs = File::Spec->splitdir( $directories );
$directories must be only the directory portion of the path on systems that have the concept of a volume or that have path syntax that dif-
ferentiates files from directories.
Unlike just splitting the directories on the separator, leading empty and trailing directory entries can be returned, because these are
significant on some OSs. So,
File::Spec->splitdir( "/a/b//c/" );
Yields:
( '', 'a', 'b', '', 'c', '' )
catpath
Takes volume, directory and file portions and returns an entire path. Under Unix, $volume is ignored, and this is just like cat-
file(). On other OSs, the $volume become significant.
