Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers How do I copy from windows clipboard into VI session? Post 302769457 by gary_w on Tuesday 12th of February 2013 10:33:50 AM

I see your sed, and raise you a find. This will add the contents of "/path/to/file.addition" to the top of every file found.
Code:
find . -name /files/to/edit -exec ksh -c 'cat /path/to/file.addition $1 > $1.changed' _ {} \;

It should use xargs instead if the list returned is too big.
