Editing multiple files simultaneously with vim/gedit

Question

I'm trying to save some work by editing multiple files with the same name located in different directories:

$ mkdir -p directory_{0..10}/results

How may I create files with the same name in all directories. For example,

$ vim/kwrite directory_*/results/output.txt

Answer 1

You almost have it with your second command. You did it correctly with the first, just use the same shell sequence expansion:

vim directory_{0..10}/results/output.txt

You should see something in the shell about opening 11 files. Then you can use vim to iterate through each one.
