Hello all,

I need to perform a "tobyte" on a set of files.  Manually I have been doing
the following:

   shell/iX> tobyte -at ./abcd.html abcd.new
   shell/iX> rm abcd.html
   shell/iX> mv abcd.new abcd.html

for each file.  I'd like to use wildcarding, but apparently I'm
misunderstanding how it works.  The command I tried (and which gave me a
syntax error) was:

   shell/iX> tobyte -at ./*.html *.new

Obviously, the wildcarding I'm used to (such as mv *.html newhome/*.html)
doesn't work with tobyte.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

John
