String replace on stdoutread

[mimo78]

Is it possible to replace strings while reading stdoutread.

I have some chars that is replaced with boxes, because stdoutread can't find out what to do with them.

so is it possible to do a stringreplace or stringregreplace while or before passing to stdout ?

Maybe use a peek (3rd parameter of StdOutRead) to see which character will be on the stdout next, and if it is some invalid character, read it out but to dev/null so to speak, and put your own character there where the stdout character would go.

Btw I dont know if this is what you mean, since you don't pass to stdout, but you read from stdout. You pass to stdin. Or am I not getting it?

That is simply not true. The reason those characters are replaced with boxes because they are visually represented as such, not because they are. The variable you capture the stdoutread to is very capable of storing those characters that you see as boxes.
