Dear All, 

I'm running Mathematica 4.0 on WinNT and 3.0 on IRIX 6.5.

I have a question concerning "unstructured" File/Stream I/O with
Mathematica:

Does anybody know a Mathematica function which allows to open external
Ascii-files, just scanning the file for a specific text-string in order
to directly replace it with some other string when found and than again
closing the Ascii-file (somehow similar to a UNIX script) ? 

Thanxs,
Justus
