Hi all

If I wanted to change the same pattern in mutiple files held in a directory 
do I use sed or awk.  I hate going into each file and using vi. I want the 
text to be modified in the file and not redirected to another place.

Also is there anywhere on a linux machine where you can get  decent examples 
of how to use a tool. I know that the man pages are there but they are an 
absolute nightmare to decipher.
