Probably an easy sh/perl question...

[mjn <mjn@umn.edu>]

I have a huge directory of config files for some majordomo lists, all of
which have one line which I want to change.

Now I have been doing some perl scripting for awhile, i am still quite
green, but it always seems to take me twice the time to code the script
than would have been just to do the manual edit.

Anyone know an easy way to change all of these files?  It is going to have
to involve some reg-exp because the variable is sender = owner-listname
which needs to be changed to listname-owner.

The regexp manuevering isn't really a problem, I have something that will
do that actually.  The place where I usually run into problems is the
gathering of filenames and then the interaction with those files...

so anyone got a quick answer to this problem?
