Replacing characters in a text file with a batch file

Question

Is there a way to replace some characters in a text file with a batch file?

I didn\'t find any command to do that.

Answer 1

You can use DOS port of Unix command line utility "tr".

A free DOS port can be found here, one of the ones I like (there are many different ones) are "UXUTL — Comprehensive collection of command line Unix utilities for DOS."

The benefit is that you get a WHOLE BUNCh of incredibly useful commands, not just tr.
