Text manipulation tools are utilities or software that enable users to modify, process, and transform text data efficiently. These tools are often used in scripting, data cleaning, and automation tasks. Common text manipulation tools include sed (stream editor) for search and replace, awk for pattern scanning and data extraction, and grep for searching text using regular expressions. Other popular tools include cut, sort, tr, and uniq for various text processing functions. These command-line tools are commonly used in UNIX/Linux environments to handle large text files, automate workflows, and perform complex text transformations.
