I use Textpad. It has really goo find/replace functions. You can scour a folder for functions, and replace things in them.

Like Mexicouger said, TextPad has incredible singular search and replace even doing Regex.

[But I started the thread not needing singular search and replace, but the ability to do several search and replaces in one fell swoop ... And I have not discovered anything except a couple of shareware utilities capable of doing 70-80 search + replaces at once. If I ever find a text editor capable of batch search and replace ... that'd be like "Wow!"]
The night is young. How else can I annoy the world before sunsrise? 8) Inquisitive minds want to know ! And if they don't -- well like that ever has stopped me before ..

textcrawler is potentially dangerous i found as regardless of filters it also replaces those same strings in executables and dll's. other than that its ok :)

ultraedit was one of my favorite tools some years back but its not free. it can be used free of charge for a time though.
