[SLUG] Regexp's and non-printable characters

Sometimes I have to replace characters in a text file with non-printable
characters, primarily the tab (0x09) character. I've tried sed, but I
can't seem to find the right thing to put in to make it replace with a
tab. I'm looking for something that works from the command line. Any
ideas?
