[SOLVED] Is there any sed like utility for cmd.exe?

Issue

I want to programmatically edit file content using windows command line (cmd.exe). In *nix there is href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sed" rel="noreferrer">sed for this tasks. Is there any useful native equivalent in windows?

Solution

Today powershell saved me.

For grep there is:

get-content somefile.txt | where { $_ -match "expression"}

or

select-string somefile.txt -pattern "expression"

and for sed there is:

get-content somefile.txt | %{$_ -replace "expression","replace"}

For more detail about replace PowerShell function see this Microsoft article.
