Post #275,336 by Yendor 12/10/06 9:36:09 AM Reply	YAAnswer Do this in the `sh` shell: `for file in $( find . -name "help.jsp" -print ); do sed -i.bak 's/\\///' $file; done` After you're done making sure that it did what you wanted it to do, go and remove all of your new .bak files. -YendorMike "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Benjamin Franklin, 1759 Historical Review of Pennsylvania

Post #275,395 by JayMehaffey 12/10/06 10:45:33 PM Reply	Thanks Thanks, I had to fix to sed to escape the slashes correctly, but that was simple. It only seemed to correct one instance per line, but I just ran several times. for file in $( find . -name "*.html" -print ); do sed -i.bak 's\|\\\|/\|' $file; done Jay
