You can put an @ symbol in front each item that is throwing the error. That may take some time though. You could use something like find /htdocs_folder -name \*.php -print | xargs sed -i s/\$array_name/@$array_name/g That might get you what you're looking for. But be cautious because this method does not create a backup file for you. You can do a quick check (but not fool proof) by using this command find /htdocs_folder -name \*.php -print | xargs grep "\$array_name" | more You may need to remove the slash in front of the $ sign.
