A LITTLE KNOW-HOW

About this tool

Make a consistent edit across pasted text in one step. Search is literal, so punctuation such as brackets and dollar signs has no special meaning. Replace every occurrence or just the first match.

How to use it

  1. 1

    Paste the document and enter the exact text to find.

  2. 2

    Type the replacement and choose matching options.

  3. 3

    Replace the text, then check the replacement count.

Questions, answered

Can I delete every match?

Yes. Leave the replacement field empty and matching text will be removed.

Does this interpret regular expressions or replacement tokens?

No. Search and replacement are literal. A replacement such as “$1” is inserted exactly as typed. Use Regex Tester to inspect patterns separately.
