Is there a reason why all of these examples of linux find and replace in multiple files use find and grep to pipe into sed or perl. Why not just use sed or perl directly with something like this?

pbs
PBS(8) BSD System Manager's Manual PBS(8)NAME
pbs -- general helper tool
SYNOPSIS
pbs [-debug] [-dump_pboard] [-dump_userdefs] [-flush_pboard] [-flush_userdefs] [-existing_languages] language1 language2 ...
DESCRIPTION
pbs is an agent for the Services menu. It scans for and vends available Services, to populate the Services menu.
pbs is NOT related to the pasteboard. The pasteboard is managed by the pboard agent.
pbs normally runs the first time Services are needed in any login session. You may run it manually for debugging Services. If run without
any options, pbs will scan for changed Services, cache them along with their English localization on a private pasteboard, and immediately
update the Services menu in all running apps. It will also log about any invalid Services declarations in Info.plist. This is useful when
developing or testing Services, because it immediately applies any changes.
ServicesMenu.strings files for a localization are loaded only when an app running under that localization shows the Services menu. You may
pass pbs language codes (e.g. "fr") to cause it to load that localization immediately. You may also pass the flag -existing_languages to
reload already loaded localizations.
pbs has additional options that are useful for debugging, in particular the -dump_pboard option. The complete list of options is:
-debug
Output debugging information regarding what pbs is doing.
-dump_pboard
Prints the private pasteboard containing the current Services information. You can use this to determine which apps are providing Ser-
vices and where they are located on the filesystem.
-dump_userdefs
Prints the userdef cache of Services information. pbs caches Services information in its userdefs to avoid scanning the entire system
every boot. Changed apps are still detected via FSEvents, so there is no need to flush the userdef cache when installing a new Service.
-flush_pboard
Erases the private pasteboard containing Services information. The next time the Services menu is shown, pbs will scan for changed Ser-
vices and update the pasteboard.
-flush_userdefs
Erases the userdef cache.
-flush
Equivalent to -flush_pboard and -flush_userdefs, entirely resetting pbs. The next time Services information is needed, pbs will do a com-
plete rescan for apps vending Services, and read their plist. Note: this rescan may be very expensive!
HISTORY
First appeared in NextStep. pbs has historically had responsibilities that ranged from pasteboard management to Unicode glyph generation,
but now it only does Services.
