New utility: 'pid', a thing more or less similar in concept to

[sgt/utils] / multi / multi

#!/usr/bin/env perl

# Perform multiple moves/copies.

# Usage:    multi mv 's/$/.old/' *.c
#           multi cp 's:/tmp/(.*):$1:' *
#           multi - svn mv - 's/foo/bar/' *foo*
#
# Options:  -n    don't actually do anything, just print what it would do
#           -r    reverse the arguments to each command
#           -q    don't print the commands as they are executed

# Note that all variables in this script begin with a double
# underscore. This is because the <action> parameter is a piece of
# user-supplied Perl, which might perfectly legitimately want to
# define and use its own variables in the course of doing a complex
# transformation on file names. Thus, I arrange that all _my_
# variables stay as far out of its likely namespace as they can.
