if you want to apply this regex to a single file, using the -i option

ie.

perl -pe "tr/[a-e]/[1-5]/g" -i <filename>

$ perl -c -pe "tr/[a-e]/[1-5]/g"
Bareword found where operator expected at -e line 1, near "tr/[a-e]/[1-5]/g"
syntax error at -e line 1, next token ???
-e had compilation errors.


John

perl -c -pe "tr/a-e/1-5/"

See `perldoc perlop` for details.
