• ∞ Consider using find and xargs

  Consider using find and xargs for doing something across a group of files without risking breaking your script because you're operating on too many files (shell wildcard expansion has limits). Using GNU find and xargs:
  http://hacktux.com/bash/file
  
  find . -name '*.foo' -type f -print0 | xargs -0I {} ~/bin/my-script '{}'
  
  will run "/bin/my-script" on all files (-type f) whose name ends in ".foo" in the current working directory (the dot after the find command) and every directory therein (find is recursive unless you tell it not to be). When you make /bin/my-script all you need to do is describe how to process one file.
  
  find will normally print the list of matching files with a newline. Here we tell find to use NULLs to terminate each list entry (-print0) you can handle pathnames with spaces and other characters that break most scripts. The -0 tells xargs what to use to know where each filename ends. Just don't forget to quote properly in your script (called /bin/my-script here) so the complete pathname is preserved.
  
  I'm also telling xargs where each filename is in the command (-I {} says to use the open/close curly brace as a placeholder for the pathname). This is optional if the last argument to the command is the pathname.
