I think your best option is to write a small program to implement
exactly the changes you want.
Python or Perl would be ideal.
I am not aware of any software designed to perform substitution
operations on BRF files, other than BRF editors. However, I assume you
want to automate it. If so, then you need to write code. Alternatively,
load it into a text editor and use search/replace. Good text editors can
do regular expression matching.

Hey hey,
I'm sorry, since this doesn't strictly belong here, but I didn't know
where else to turn.
I have a .brf (Braille ready file) containing musical notes. Choosing
the brf text table with BRLTTY gives a good/proper representation. But
mostly I need to work with my own text table, namely de (German).
Using either brltty or the liblouis tool - or any other open source
tool - is there a ready-made tool to convert such files into either
the unicode braille pattern characters or mapping the characters from
the file to proper representations in German?
One example: a comma (,) in a .brf file is used to represent a
capitalisation. In US printed braille this is dot 6, in German it
would be dots 4 and 6. So it could be converted to the braille
patterns of either or mapped to the German braille table an apostrophe
('), which is dot 6 or a dollar sign ($), which is dots 4 and 6.
Any help is appreciated. I know, I could write a Python program
performing this with relative ease, but I'd rather check for an
existing solution first. :)
Best wishes,
Jeanette
