Re: replace text in quote

$ echo "<Sed is very hard to learn>" | sed -e 's/ /-/g'
<Sed-is-very-hard-to-learn>
$

The -e option means 'execute the following command'.
The s means Substitute.
Then you get that which you want to replace.
The next one is that what will be in place.
The g means Global, otherwise only one replace will take place, and now the whole sentence will be searched and replaced.
