Add-in enhancement to Visual Studios Replace in Files (file search and replace)
BSEditor: The Witzend ReplaceInFiles (TM) Add-in supercharges Visual Studios Replace in Files feature, giving you fast one-step search and replace for all project source files, whether you work in C++, C#, or Visual Basic. The ReplaceInFiles Add-in attaches so transparently to the Visual Studio environment that the only outward change is a new Replace in Files command in the environments Tools menu.

The ReplaceInFiles Add-in offers a wealth of features that give you plenty of control over the search process:

* Date and size filters. Restrict a search to files within a specified range of size or date. For example, search and replace only in those files Between 10K and 50K in size and dated within the last month.

* Case sensitivity and whole-word searching. Specify case sensitivity (find Abc but not abc) and whole-word filters (find any but not anywhere).

* Confirm replacements. The ReplaceInFiles Add-in lets you confirm replacements before theyre made. Each located String is shown highlighted in context, allowing you to click a Yes or No button to confirm or disallow the replacement.

* Search multiple projects in a single step. Find yourself working with large solutions that contain many projects or subprojects? ReplaceInFiles intelligently recognizes multi-project solutions and quickly scans through all files in each project.

* Search any folder. The optional Browse view lets you search-and-replace anywhere, even in files that arent contained in a project. Navigate to where you want the search to begin and ReplaceInFiles does the rest.

* Automatic file backup. The ReplaceInFiles Add-in can automatically backup each file before revising it.

* Online help. The interface is very intuitive for the Visual Studio user, but if you have a question, an extensive online Users Guide is always available. Or you can activate the question mark button on the ReplaceInFiles dialog and click any feature for a detailed description. you can free download Replace In Files Add-in for Visual 3.1 now.
