If there is a 'size:40' then you can convert that to any size you want by finding /size: 40/ and replacing that with /size: 50/ any time it occurs in as many files as exist say you have Chapter01 thru Chapter50, then every <regexp> can be changed to <newregexp> by 'sed'. Its been a number of years since I have used sed and I dont remember the syntax but it goes something like this: cat /<dirpath>/* | sed /size: 40/r/size: 50/ tee /<newdirpath> sed is a stream editor and cat is necessary to stream the data. Do not use the syntax I have shown more may be required or different may be required I just dont remember. See man sed or info sed. -- Regards: Hoyt Registered Linux User # 363264 http://counter.li.org
