BK ReplaceEM - easy text replacements in multiple files

I have used this utility to replace text in over 300 files with one click of the mouse. I can tell you that it works and it works very well. It will keep track of file groups that you work with. It also keeps track of the individual replacement operations you perform on each group. Website - Freeware Quote from the website - your premiere-quality, freeware string-replacing utility for Windows. At its core, ReplaceEm is essentially a text search-and-replace program. However, unlike the search-replace functionality of a standard text editor, ReplaceEm is designed to operate on multiple files at once. And you need not only perform one search-replace operation per file -- you can setup a list of operations to perform. If different groups of files need to have different operations performed on them, this is no problem either. You can also specify a backup file for each file processed just incase the replace operation didn’t do exactly what you wanted.
