Thank you but I get this errors:

sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
sh: -c: line 0: `sed s/ol/ur/g < #<File:0xb7c6cb38> > 
#<File:0xb7c6cb10>'


What happens?

The code:
"       f1 = File.open("original.txt")
        f2 = File.open("canviada.txt")

def substitute(f,g,w,x)
    `sed s/#{w}/#{x}/g < #{f} > #{g}`
end

substitute(f1,f2,"ol","ur")
"

original file has
"
Hello folks or
 old men
"
and canviada is empty

Thanks in advance,
Xan.
