You have to fill that part in. Do you know the names of the files?
If so, list them in the first section.

Do you have a set of "find" criteria that will produce the target
files? If so, use that section.

Do you have a simple shell "glob" (wild-card) expression that will
yield the proper targets? If so, use that.

Shouldn't *.php yield the results i need as far as find the 2000
files?

How would I know? You didn't say anything about the files on which you
wish to operate. Is the target set all files whose name end in ".php"?
If so, then yes. If not, then no.


You didn't give any information about which files to operate on, so
obviously I could not make that part of the sample / example script
definite.

That is the whole purpose of wanting a script.....I have over 2000
files that need to have the ' inserted into the files. No way am i
going to hand type the file names in.

"Files" could be anything. Clearly, I could not write the script to
select a set of files the criteria for which remain in your mind.

If there's any regularity to the names of the files on which you wish
the script to operate, then no, you don't need to type them. But so
far, only you know those criteria so only you can write the code that
will yield that list.
