nlindley / titleize-filename-for-heading.sh
Last active December 22, 2015 22:59
Silly one-liner that lists directory contents (for my use-case, they were only regular files), strips the extension, titleizes the filename, and prepends that as a Markdown heading.
for FILENAME in `ls`; do perl -pi -e "print \"# `ruby -e \"require 'active_support/inflector'; puts '${FILENAME%.md}'.titleize\"`\n\n\" if $. == 1" $FILENAME; done;
