Change category folder name

When category have name like "my category" the name of the folder will be my_category the same is when using Rewrite and Change the name of the link form
www.abc.com/Detailed/123.htm to
www.abc.com/my_category/my_link_123/

Can I modify this so I will get folder name like my-category and link name like
www.abc.com/my-category/my-link_123/

Try adding;

Code:
  $cat_url =~ s/\Q_/-/g;

AFTER;

Code:
   my $cat_url = $DB->table('Category')->as_url($cat_full_name);

Is there an option to change the name of the folders in the nph-build.cgi or in other way?

Not with mod_rewrite. Otherwise page.cgi would get sent something like;

page.cgi?g=Some-test-category/foo-bar

...instead of;

page.cgi?g=Some_test_category/foo_bar

...which is what it would need to find the category in question.
