It is true that your script will replace the Perl path within the shebang
string, but it will also replace it if the same string is
anywhere inside the script.
perl -pi.bak -e 's[^#!/usr/local/bin/perl][#!/usr/bin/perl]' *.pl
This one should guarantee that the replacement happens only at the beginning
of a string. To ensure that the replacement is carried out only
once in each script, though, one more check is needed.
perl -pi.bak -e 'BEGIN{$c=@ARGV};s[^#!/usr/local/bin/perl][#!/usr/bin/
+perl] && $c-- if $c> @ARGV' *.pl
which translates roughly into
#!/usr/bin/perl -w -i.bak
use strict
our $count=@ARGV;
while (<>) {
if ($count > @ARGV) {
s[^#!/usr/local/bin/perl][#!/usr/bin/perl];
$count--;
}
print;
}

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).
