Hello sizzlers!
Great news!!
I was just seeking for a complete search & replace tool with high capacity
and extreme great performance when the developer Roman Vasin, from Vasin Knoware,
Inc., announced the release of Version 1.4.2 of his Advanced Find and Replace.
Quickly I sucked this one, a small/grand file (afr.zip, 639K), installed the
soft and...here is it! Finally, the stat of art in searching & replacing
for programmers on all codes, webmasters.

How Advanced Find and Replace can helps a webmaster like me? Here is an significant example: recently some merchant partners shutdowned payment for clicks through Reporting Net (I, personally, migrated to Link Share...) and I noticed that above 4,000 (four thousand) pages of my principal website was working with dead "double-click" links on the Net. I've here some replacers, built-in in some editors for programmers, and also a specialized tool. The problem was the text to be replaced for a merchant is a <form> very long for all query windows on these tools related above. I was desperate when Roman Vasin announced this fine piece of software. I evaluated it working on this problem and Advanced Find and Replace solved it quickly.
Yeah, here is the search & replace tool for all webmasters!! Obviously I rated it the maximum here for a soft: Five Butterflies!!

About Advanced
Find and Replace 1.4.2
Advanced Find and Replace is exactly
what the name implies. It's fast, easy to use, and a great time-saver for programmers
and webmasters in particular. This powerful utility lets you perform text searches
on your local computer as if you were using an Internet search engine. It features
support for operators that allow you to specify phrases, words to insist on
(+), and words to ignore (-). You can easily apply file specifications, date,
and size filters to speed up the search. The program also allows you to replace
simple or multi-line strings. Specify your search-and-replace strings, then
choose the action you'd like to take: delete the search string, insert text
before or after it, or simply replace it. You can even apply multiple changes
to large groups of files in a single operation and use optional confirmation
if you need to be more selective. Excellent documentation is included.
