File parse code to search and replace a string of text.
I am looking for some C or C++ code that would parse a text file, and replace all occurrences of a string with another string.
So if I have a text file with this text : Mary had a little lamb who's name was Mary Anne.
And I want to replace "Mary" with "Terry", how can I do that in C++. My file might have up to 1000 lines of text in it. The end result would be Terry had a little lamb who's name was Terry Anne.

Note that the while loop would not be equivalent to the for loop if you wanted to replace "Mary" with "Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary"
