+.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
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.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_name\fR\fR\fB [\fR\fB\fIfile_name\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_name\fR\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.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 file names 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,
+file1
+and
+file2:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+shell> \fBreplace a b b a \-\- file1 file2 \&.\&.\&.\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\

+.PP
+The
+\fBreplace\fR
+program is used by
+\fBmsql2mysql\fR\&. See
