A Command line Character replacer

[DeadManWalks]

Hey, does anyone know of a stand alone app (PC) that can read a file, and replace a hex character with a different hex character.

something like this.

Replacer C:\EDI\MyUser\MyFile.edi 0A 7E

So the MyFile.edi has line feeds replaced with the "~". I have to do this on the PC. Its too late if its on the Iseries because a third party software picks up the file and it gets pissed if the line feed is in there.

This app would have to be able to be run in a Hands off manor. I will write one if no one knows of one.

Tks. DMW.
