bash: find -exec and filenames

Question

I want to strip the HTML out of few hundred files.

Here\'s the command I\'ve started with:

find -name *.html -exec w3m {} > w3m {}.html.out \\; 
         


        

Answer 1

The redirection happens outside of find. Invoke a subshell.

find -name *.html -exec bash -c 'w3m "$1" > w3m-"$1".html.out' w3mout {} \;
