foreach

Hello,

I am trying to change the content of a specific line in a batch of files. I thought that would be a piece of cake but for some reason, nothing happens, so I guess I am missing something. Line 8 should have been replaced.

Here the csh script I used:

!/bin/csh

#

replace context in line xxx by yyy

2010/05/07

set files = ls FILENAMEPART* echo $files foreach file ($files) sed '8,8 s/1/2 /' $file end

thanks for suggestions
