Maybe using a code like this:

NSArray * test = [myMutString componentsSeparatedByString:@":"];
NSString * newString = [test componentsJoinedByString:@"\t"];

What would be the most efficient way to replace characters in a string?
Say I
have an NSString/NSMutableString that contains...

Joe:Smith:MI:123:456:8967:M

..and I want to replace all the colons with tabs? I suppose that I could
break each field into a substring and then recombine them, but that seems
like way
too many steps for such a simple task. I need something like...

[myMutString replaceCharacter:':' with:'\t'];

Looking through the documentation of NSMutableString and NSString I didn't
find anything similar.

Thanks in advance
