The Witzend ReplaceInFiles Add-in enhances Visual Studio's Replace in Files capability, enabling simple project source file search and replace in a single step. It integrates with Visual Studio, adding a new Replace in Files command to the Tools menu.
If you're a Visual Studio user and often find yourself searching and replacing text across multiple project source files, then the Witzend ReplaceInFiles (TM) Add-in is the tool for you. This add-in adds a new Replace in Files command to the Tools menu and provides a wealth of powerful features to enhance the search process.
With ReplaceInFiles, you can easily search and replace text in C++, C#, or Visual Basic files. The add-in integrates seamlessly with Visual Studio, so you'll hardly notice it's there. But once you start using it, you'll wonder how you ever managed without it.
One of the standout features of ReplaceInFiles is its ability to filter files based on date and size. You can specify a range of file sizes or dates to search within, making it easy to focus on just the files you need. This is particularly useful if you're working on a large project with lots of files.
ReplaceInFiles also lets you specify case sensitivity and whole-word searching, which gives you even more control over the search process. And if you're worried about making mistakes when replacing text, the add-in lets you confirm replacements before they're made. Each located string is shown highlighted in context, so you can click a Yes or No button to confirm or disallow the replacement.
Not only can you search across multiple projects in a single step, but you can also search any folder. ReplaceInFiles includes a Browse view that lets you search and replace text in files that aren't contained in a project. Simply navigate to the folder you want to search and ReplaceInFiles will do the rest.
Finally, the add-in includes automatic file backup, which is a valuable safety net if you ever need to undo a replacement. And if you ever have a question about how to use the tool, there's an extensive online User's Guide that's always available.
