I should have said in the title that also strings in plain TCP I need to
modify...
The below is for that second case. Solved, I think.

For that reason, I don't want too much changed, but just the critical
pieces...

I remembered, actually found that program, at:
https://wiki.wireshark.org/Tools
It's tcpreplay:

(but read on)

I've done a little research. And I just don't see that tcprewrite or
tcpreplay-edit (apparently similar, somewhat overlapping the two) of the
tcpreplay program... I just don't see that these could modify strings
*inside* SSL streams... Maybe there is not such a thing that can do that
in the whole of *nixdom?
But while tcprewrite can rewrite PCAP files, and, in my case, has to
change DLT (data link type else it can not modify my PCAPs, I think for
what I need to modify, such as some serials, some MACs, Perl can do a
perfect job! And much better. In a perfect way!
First the source (lots of, but this one the simplest and very much to
the point):
http://www.atrixnet.com/in-line-search-and-replace-in-files-with-real-perl-regular-expressions/
where find:
perl -p -i -e 's/change this/to that/g' file1 file2 file3...
I checked it, it works perfectly!
I thought I'd share this since there surely are Wireshark users who will
find this useful!
But again, if anybody knows how strings *inside* SSL can be modified,
pls do tell us!
Regards!
