How to parameterize multiple search patterns and generate a new file
I have one file:
123*100*abcd*10
123*101*abcd*-29*def
123*100*abcd*-10
123*102*abcd*-105*asd
I would like to parameterize the search patterns in the following way so that the user could dynamically change the search pattern.
*100* and *- (ie *minus)
*102* and *-
The output that is required is the following into a new file:
123*100*abcd*-10
123*102*abcd*-105*asd
What would be the best way to do it (including scripting). Thanks.

Example #1
msgfmt_format_message(3) example
<?php
echo msgfmt_format_message("en_US", "{0,number,integer} monkeys on {1,number,integer} trees make {2,number} monkeys per tree
", array(4560, 123, 4560/123));
echo msgfmt_format_message("de", "{0,number,integer} Affen auf {1,number,integer} Baumen sind {2,number} Affen pro Baum
", array(4560, 123, 4560/123));
?>
Example #2
OO example
<?php
echo MessageFormatter::formatMessage("en_US", "{0,number,integer} monkeys on {1,number,integer} trees make {2,number} monkeys per tree
", array(4560, 123, 4560/123));
echo MessageFormatter::formatMessage("de", "{0,number,integer} Affen auf {1,number,integer} Baumen sind {2,number} Affen pro Baum
