Inte
You can also break it down like this (assuming the files have numeric
names):
for d in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9; do
for f in $d*; do
...
done
done

Actually it does work, I tested it (on ubuntu 14.04).
#make a ton of empty files
for i in {1..100} ; do touch tmpfilename_${i}.txt ; done
ls *.txt
>Argument list too long.
#this works
for f in *.txt ; do echo $f ; done

That is a limitation of linux there is a maximum length of the command
line. You should be able to use a for loop in bash like:
for f in *.pdb ; do babel ${f} -omol2 ${f%.*}.mol2 ; done
The ${s%.*} bit is some bash string manipulation for stripping the file
extension.

Hello,
I am trying to convert multiple (10) files using open babel. Here is what I
do:
babel *.pdb -omol2 -m
But it seems there are too many files, I get:
-bash: /usr/local/bin/babel: Argument list too long
How can I solve this?
Thank you,
Alsa---
