hyperpyg_on_the_shell.sh

find ~/htdocs | grep html$ | xargs grep -l "<pre syntax=" | xargs -I {} -t ./hyperpyg.py -f {} -o {} -q

find ~/htdocs -type f -name *.html -exec grep -l "<pre syntax=" {} ; | xargs -I {} -t ./hyperpyg.py -f {} -o {} -q

while that uses less processes, it is longer to type ;)

I agree, I'm still learning the full use of find.

Yeah it's an awesome tool, you might find though that putting all the work on find, will make the chain faster too. For instance the -type f makes it so no dir/links show in the output, and -name does simple ls/cd like regex (though there is a -regex flag). All of those and the -atime -perm type flags combine to make find pretty awesome, and only something I've lately become more familiar with.
