Multireplace support / addon

[redfox]

It would be great if TC could have the ability to replace content in multiple files, either built-in, or via an addon. I has been requested a long time ago, but with no response.

I am quite tired of trying external utilities, which are often buggy or infected. I was using the ReplaceText app yesterday and it freezed after second use, never more...

Thanks in advance.

Such function is part of most good editors even freeware.
So I don't see any need for duplication in TC.

Its a basic function. If there is a multirename available in TC, a multireplace should be included as well.

I'm sorry, currently this isn't planned, for security reasons: If you apply this by mistake to e.g. Word files, the resulting files will be unusable because of the changed offsets to the formatting information.

Therefore their content would be completely lost. I can recommend that you use a multiple document editor with search+replace across documents.
This way you can see what you are replacing.
