If you're on a unix machine, the most fun way to do it would
be with something like:
find . -type f -exec perl -pi -e "s/string x/string y/g" {} \;
This will find all files, starting in the current directory,
and do the replacement intended. If you do not have access
to the find command, you're probably going to want to look
at File::Find, as it's the standard perl module to handle
recursively finding files, and letting you perform some
editting on each.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
