For a while now, I've been using a generalized version of this, which I
call EX.BAT :

     for %%f in (%2) do %1 %3 %%f %4 %5

For example,

     ex grep bernie *.txt

will grep for all occurrences of "bernie" in all .txt files in the current
directory, while

     ex c88 \src\*.c

will compile all .c files in \src.
