NOTE: There may be inconsistencies in the usage of some UNIX tools on different platforms. For example, I have found some versions of tr which accept stdin and some which require an explicit input. The version used here accepts stdin, and if an error occurs, formulations such as

        tr string1 string2 |
may have to be replaced by
        tr string1 string2 - |
