find and replace (tcl)

Read in the file, split it with 'split', and then use lsearch and lreplace to find and replace it. Then rewrite the file with the new data.

If you're only using that file to store date you use in your script, there are other file formats that would make the process easier.

what is the best method for tcl scripting to find a specific position and replace it in an saved file which consists of few lines.

would be nice if someone can reply an complete example for this, the "7" is to be replaced:

1;2;3;4
5;6;7;8
9;10;11;12

thx
