Please tell me how can I replace control characters with normal string. I have a file that contains normal string and ^A ^C control characters. I tried to use sed and awk without any luck.
sed 's/^A/foo/g' text > text1 //not worked
sed 's/\x01/foo/g' text > text1 //not worked
sed 's/\x001/foo/g' text > text1 //not worked
sed 's/\001/foo/g' text > text1 //not worked
Used grep to find ^A characters, but it's not finding. tr tool is working fine. But if I use tr it will completely remove all control characters from file. But I need to change control characters with normal string. How can I achieve this. Please help me
