Yeah, catch!

Code:
perl -e ' while (<>) { chomp; if( $_ =~ /(\d+)\.(\d+)/ ) { s/\./,/g; print "$_\n"; } else { print "$_\n" } }' filename

What is the need to replace number and ' . ' as number and ' , '
or
' . ' and number as ' , ' and number in a combined expression

just one of the them would do,

Code:
sed "s/\([0-9]\)\./\1,/g" a
or
Code:
sed "s/\.\([0-9]\)/,\1/g"  a

It wont work in the following cases
Code:
$ echo ".34" | sed "s/\([0-9]\)\./\1,/g"
.34
$ echo "23." | sed "s/\.\([0-9]\)/,\1/g"
23.

this is cool!

It didnt strike for me about the ".34" and "34." kind of numbers

Code:
perl -e ' while (<>) { chomp; if( $_ =~ /(\d+)\.(\d+)/ || $_ =~ /\.(\d+)/ || $_ =~ /(\d+)\./ ) { s/\./,/g; print "$_\n"; } else { print "$_\n" } }' filename
