Question

I have write a script for renaming it is like this

for i in *.xml
do
    cp ${i} "suffix${i:6}"
done

but I do not know how to change the text inside the xml file.

For example in all the files I have the word “asdfg” and I want to replace that with “qwert”.

I know is possible and probably simple to do it in bash script but I do not know how to code this and I do not know even how to google it

Thanks

done
