Changing text in all files in a dir

[P-Dicky]

Hello

I need to change this "$LOG" to "/path/path/path" in all files in dir full of ascii files. Any tips?

Thanks

Hi:

A rapid way is:

# cd /path && find . -xdev -type f -exec perl -pi -e 's{\$LOG}{/path/path/path}g' {} +

This will update the files "inplace".
