use sed do batch wildcard string replace
Hi,
Here is what I want to do
I want to search local directory and its sub directory, all the files which contain any string like _12345, then remove this string.
String is a combination of _ plus a random integer number.
For example, here is one line in a file before
<properties xmi:id="Property_1246046473688" name="com.ibm.websphere.wxdcgProductVersion" value="6.1.0.4"/>
after change, it should become
<properties xmi:id="Property" name="com.ibm.websphere.wxdcgProductVersion" value="6.1.0.4"/>
Please help.
