NSMutableString has:
- (unsigned int)replaceOccurrencesOfString:(NSString *)target
withString:(NSString *)replacement options:(unsigned)opts
range:(NSRange)searchRange
It escapes me right now, but I believe there is, also, a NSCharacterSet
based method that has similar functionality.
Also, for general purpose parsing, check out : NSScanner.
