Literally about 10 years ago, I'm pretty sure this list suggested a tool
that I used to update several text files in a common folder; it was a
big "replace text 123 with 456" kind of thing. But alas, my memory is
failing me and I can't recall what the tool was called.
Anybody know of such a tool to handle large search/replace across
several text files in a same folder or even perhaps cascading tree of
folders?
tia,

Even the "Code References" tool from FoxPro lets you do a global search and
replace over multiple files...

You can use Notepad++ on TX2 files, then generate de binaries with
FoxBin2Prg.
I used it many times :D

Yes it does.
I use the "Code References" tool from FoxPro a lot. I stopped using the
global search and replace because it can destroy the files. There may be
a way to make it work, but I manually go through the list of files now
and it works well.

I had the same experience as you years ago, Ken, with it screwing up
files. Never trusted the global replace after that.

By the way, Notepad++ have a search & replace function that works on all
files of a given mask in subdirectories, so no manual replacement in each
file is needed.
