Didn't work; however I realized I could just repeatedly run variations of

sed -i s/foo/bar/g *

and then rename the files with a bash script called renna.

I'm sure python could do it but I got stuck -

for file in os.walk('mydir'):
	print file[2]

gives me the names of all files 

but how do I open each with r+ mode ? 

for thing in os.walk('mydir'):
	file(thing,mode=r+)

is invalid syntax
