Shell Programming and Scripting

I need help. I need to read all current and incoming text file in the directory and change it's content to 0.

The following code change the content of the text file to 0, however, the code always assumes that the files are ALREADY present. Is there any way where I can change the file1_.txt, file_2.txt, file_3.txt with only .txt extension and still change the content of the .txt file

Code:

#!/bin/sh 

for file in file_1.txt file_2.txt file_3.txt
do
    awk '{ print "0" }' $file > tmp.tmp
    mv tmp.tmp $file
done

Thanks for the help!

Code:

for file in file_1.txt file_2.txt file_3.txt
do
    echo "0" > $file 
done

try this..

Code:

 
for i in *.txt
do
     echo "0" > $i
done

Thanks a lot. It works!
