Just a little precision after messages i received:
i can't use perl (not installed for many reasons)
i can't reproduce this code with my keyboard (CtrlV Ctrl...)
All sed commands with ", ', or \\ anywhere does not work.
The error message is: sed Function s/\code/string/g cannot be parsed.
Have a good week-end.

Objet: how to substitute a no printable character by a string in a text
file
Hello Managers,
I want to substitute in a file a no printable character by a
multi-characterstring, as something like that:
sed s/\octal_code/"my_string"/g myfile
sed does not like this syntax and I can't use tr, because my string is
multi-character...
Any suggestions?
