I often use grep in conjunction with "find" and "xargs". Check out xargs, it might do exactly what you want or at least some of it. On 8/4/06, Ken <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'm getting this error when it try to run your script: > "find: /tmp/z: No such file or directory" > > and the command I

Heres the perl equivalent: #!/usr/bin/perl -w # # script to process all mp3 files under a given directory or directories # use File::Find; no warnings 'File::Find'; #the @array holds the dirs you want to search, you can specify multiple dirs here or just one, #uncomment appropriate one [EMAIL

Hi Ken, Probably easiest to write a quick perl script to search through the directories and encode each one it finds with your settings. Hint: Use the File::Find module and give it the top most directory and it will recurse through every directory it finds. Hope this helps! Steve On 04/08/
