Find and replace in all files using shell scripting
Hi all,
I'm looking to find and replace a string in all HTML files within a certain directory, including subdirectories. Normally, I would play with this a little to get it to work, but I can't mess this up, so I'm going to ask here.
Basically, I want to find "<title>" in all *.htm* files (to include .htm and .html) and replace it with "<title>My Website Name - ". I'm doing a bit of search engine optimization. How should I write a shell script to do this?
Best,
Danny
