... Anybody know of a free [and good] app for doing multiple find/replace's on multiple files? I can't seem to find any decent one but I'm probably not looking in teh right places. Regards, Brian Dela :-)
I've found years ago a shell extension which did this. I can't remember its name (perhaps this one :~ ), but it was at http://www.freewarehome.com[^]

Using an "application" to do find and replace on multiple files sound like overkill to me. Lets say you're running Windows... 1.) Create a batch file along the lines of: [foreach.bat] @echo off for %%v in (%1) do %2 %%v [/foreach.bat] 2.) Install PERL. Create another batch file along the lines of: [replace.bat] perl -i.bk -pe"s/I want to replace this/with this/" %1 [/replace.bat] Assuming above files are in your PATH you can just do: C:\>foreach *.jsp replace.bat from anywhere. You can always just edit "replace.bat" to suit your needs at any particular point in time and you have access to PERL powerful regex-functionality. Rgds, Soren

Ok... an app to do it is overkill but installing perl isn't??? :wtf: :confused: Regards, Brian Dela :-)

UltraEdit, VS.NET... ORACLE One Real A$#h%le Called Lary Ellison
You need to open the files with both of these though. Regards, Brian Dela :-)

??? UltraEdit has a Find/Replace-in-files option that doesn't require the files to be open...
When I am king, you will be first against the wall.
I haven't used UltraEdit in a while so I didn't know that. I never saw that feature when I was using it. Thanks for the info though. Regards, Brian Dela :-)
