.SH "NAME"
replace \- a string\-replacement utility
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP 18
\fBreplace \fR\fB\fIarguments\fR\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The
\fBreplace\fR
utility program changes strings in place in files or on the standard input.
.PP
Invoke
\fBreplace\fR
in one of the following ways:
.sp
.RS 3n
.nf
shell> \fBreplace \fR\fB\fIfrom\fR\fR\fB \fR\fB\fIto\fR\fR\fB [\fR\fB\fIfrom\fR\fR\fB \fR\fB\fIto\fR\fR\fB] ... \-\- \fR\fB\fIfile\fR\fR\fB [\fR\fB\fIfile\fR\fR\fB] ...\fR
shell> \fBreplace \fR\fB\fIfrom\fR\fR\fB \fR\fB\fIto\fR\fR\fB [\fR\fB\fIfrom\fR\fR\fB \fR\fB\fIto\fR\fR\fB] ... < \fR\fB\fIfile\fR\fR
.fi
.RE
.PP
\fIfrom\fR
represents a string to look for and
\fIto\fR
represents its replacement. There can be one or more pairs of strings.
.PP
Use the
\fB\-\-\fR
option to indicate where the string\-replacement list ends and the filenames begin. In this case, any file named on the command line is modified in place, so you may want to make a copy of the original before converting it.
\fIreplace\fR
prints a message indicating which of the input files it actually modifies.
.PP
If the
\fB\-\-\fR
option is not given,
\fBreplace\fR
reads the standard input and writes to the standard output.
.PP
\fBreplace\fR
uses a finite state machine to match longer strings first. It can be used to swap strings. For example, the following command swaps
a
and
b
in the given files,
\fIfile1\fR
and
\fIfile2\fR:
.sp
.RS 3n
.nf
shell> \fBreplace a b b a \-\- file1 file2 ...\fR
.fi
.RE
.PP
The
\fBreplace\fR
program is used by
\fBmsql2mysql\fR. See
\fBmsql2mysql\fR(1).
.PP
\fBreplace\fR
supports the following options:
.TP 3n
\(bu
\fB\-?\fR,
\fB\-I\fR
.sp
Display a help message and exit.
.TP 3n
\(bu
\fB\-# \fR\fB\fIdebug_options\fR\fR
.sp
Write a debugging log. The
\fIdebug_options\fR
string often is
\'d:t:o,\fIfile_name\fR'.
.TP 3n
\(bu
\fB\-s\fR
.sp
Silent mode. Print less information what the program does.
.TP 3n
\(bu
\fB\-v\fR
.sp
Verbose mode. Print more information about what the program does.
.TP 3n
\(bu
\fB\-V\fR
.sp
Display version information and exit.
