Thank you oodles Anisa. It seems like 'tr' is exactly what I was looking 
for.

Also, thanks for the suggestion of unixutils for MSWin. I already have 
them but never noticed 'tr' in there before (silly me). What I needed 
was something that worked on Linux, and tr, being a standard part of 
Linux seems to be just the thing.

I'm grateful. I could have read and read for ages without finding that. :)

Best wishes,
