You are escaping the special characters because that is what you are required to do in the shell to prevent other special handling. Those backslashes are removed by the shell processor itself, prior to being passed to your script. I suspect that the [shell] context is not preprocessed, but rather the script is directly exec'd with the parameters passed in intact (with the backslashes still there) and hence the sed fails.Two things you can do is write a simple shell script which merely echos out its commandline parameters, to see whether the shell escapes are processed or not. Or else, you could just take my guess as correct and do this instead:[shell] ./replc.sh [include /includes/counters/booooo_counter.inc] /path/to/file/moo.html [/shell]NOTE: it is not clear to me what directory is current when the [shell] script it run: is it the current template directory? or the WebCatalogEngine directory? or where?NOTE 2: if this is a one-time change, it is much more appropriate to ssh to the server and use find to walk the tree and update all of the files...HTHJohn-- John Peacock Director of Information Research and Technology Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group 4720 Boston Way Lanham, MD 20706 301-459-3366 x.5010 fax 301-429-5747 ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
