Overview
Multifile-replace applies regular expression replace patterns to multiple files. It basically does something like:
for file in ...; do
sed -e 's/xxx/yyy/' <$file >$file.tmp;
mv $file.tmp $file
done
But it is more efficient because it avoids creating temporary files and spawning a subprocess for each file.
