yes perl can do this.
their is no built in function to just magically transform as you have
above. It would take a little code. Why is it:
AAAABCCCDD A!4BC!3DD
and not
AAAABCCCDD A!4BC!3D!2
I mean if its 1 character, just print it, if its two chars just print it?
then if its more than 2 do the char!num thing?
