<shameless>

you could download ZShell from :

	http://www.librelogiciel.com/software/

you can even test a restricted version online before downloading.

and use its find and setprop commands, try something like :

find . --type "DTML Document" --exec "setprop --name author --value homer {}"

this will recursively set the property "author" to value "homer" on
all your objects which meta type is "DTML Document" from the
current folder.

if the property doesn't already exist then use the addprop command before.

hth.
