There are many options here, with numerous buttons to view and edit what you are working with. For a path, the Edit or View will find the index file.
The strings looked for can either be entered as a string, or taken from a file that is pointed to. This allows the inclusion of carriage returns in the search and/or replace strings. Instead of replacing, the facility can insert the second string before or after the first string.
Recursiveness is an option one usually wants turned on.
By default, the find is case sensitive. This can be turned off.
You have a choice as to what filetypes you find and replace in:
- htm
- txt
- htm+txt
- css
- log
- cue
- filenames - This combobox option looks in the filename and not in the file content. File type will be ignored. Searching does not search the path, but does search the file extension. There is no replace. There are two options: 1-string within filename, 2-entire filename.
There is a facility that lets you search and replace on the results of a prior find. You create a TempList.txt file from the displayed results. Enter templist into the "Top Path or File" cell. Then everything works on that list.
