Hi David
Have you looked into the excellent Galaxy Unix-Tools package created

The Find Replace text in line/column tool is probably what you are

Hello David,
There are tools to select data based on defined attributes or to perform
calculations on existing data (Text Manipulation, Filter and Sort), but
as such no direct user-defined substitution tools.
Very sorry for any inconvenience,
Best,

Is there a tool for doing a global or column-based substitution in a text or
tabular file? For example, replace all instances of the number 2 in a column
to a number 1?
