Older system with October 30 snapshot.
Since there was a delay with snapshot packages, I built some ports while
waiting, so I added groff.

SPACE_TO_UNDERSCORE(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation
NAME
<Space_To_Underscore.pl> - <Converts all names of files and/or
directories, that match patterns, from spaces in the names to
underscores.>
VERSION
This documentation refers to <Space_To_Underscore.pl> version 0.0.7.
SYNOPSIS
Space_To_Underscore.pl [-q -h -m -r -a] [directory] [match list]
# Space_To_Underscore.pl /home/dude/mymusic wav$ mp3$
(Verbose)
# Space_To_Underscore.pl -q -r -a /home/dude/mymusic wav$ mp3$
(Quiet)
# Space_To_Underscore.pl -q /home/dude/mymusic .*
(Quiet, Converts all files, not directories, not subdirectories)
# Space_To_Underscore.pl -a /home/dude/mymusic .*
(Converts all files and directories, not subdirectories)
# Space_To_Underscore.pl -r -a /home/dude/mymusic .*
(Converts all files, directories and subdirectories)
# Space_To_Underscore.pl -h (Prints short help message)
# Space_To_Underscore.pl -m (Prints this help message)
DESCRIPTION
Verbose mode ( default ) shows directory name, counts how many files
match and then shows old and new filenames. Also shown are any
filenames that match, but cannot be changed. Files and directories
without write permissions cannot be changed. Recursive mode ( -r )
follows through to all subdirectories.
Be sure to use \\ instead of \, since shell recognizes \ as a command
continuing onto next line.
You may use most regular expressions (all?).
VERSION = 0.0.6+ may use any - options, in any order
BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
'*' should not be used as wildcard, use '.*'. Using '*' will result in
local filesnames being chosen - Bad!
Please report problems to <Chris Bennett>
(<ch...@bennettconstruction.us>)
Patches are welcome.
