The tr executable is about 60% the size of the sed executable, whether
tr is quicker or requires less memory space I don't know.
Asked I might have said the same thing... but:
ls -l `which sed` `which tr`
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 21132 Jul 4 2001 /bin/sed*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 24056 Jul 12 09:54 /usr/bin/tr*
But again, these are your tools... unless you want to write a quicke
perl script, but that's even more overhead.
