awk find and replace in multiple files
Hi
I use the following code to replace ‘.' with ‘N' in my files and keep both versions.
awk '{ gsub(/\./,"N"); print }' file_0001.txt > path/to/new/dir/file_0001.txt
I need help on how to apply the code to 100 files instead of doing them one file at a time. The files are labeled file_0001.txt to file_0100.txt.
Thanks
joseph
