The sed stream editor is the tool to use. To give it the list of files to process requires some shell knowledge and a little additional information from you. Do you want each processed file to be concatenated on stdout or should each file be saved as an individual processed file? And which shell are you using? --- Bob McGowan i'm: bob dot mcgowan at artecon dot com
