Replace Studio Business Edition

9.6

A reliable and useful tool that easily searches through text-based files and, if you want, perform replacements with another string

Some people work on a daily basis with documents, while other domains of activities completely rely on them. Sure enough they’re just a bunch of small files, but content is the important part. It’s a difficult task to find specific words in more documents, and this is where applications like Replace Studio Business Edition come in handy.

Simple interface makes it easy to use


Since it’s meant to simplify things, it’s only natural that the main window itself is organized in a simple manner, yet it somehow manages to make things intuitive, and accommodation pretty quick. Split into several panels, you get to make up several lists, one for the task you want to run, one for files to look through, as well as a result panel.
Luckily, it gets even easier, starting with the process of adding files. Various formats that contain text are supported, and you can just drag them over the main window. Next up comes the task you want to perform.

Set up tasks and save results


Configuring the task takes a little while, mostly because it’s based on the common find and replace window you find in every text editing program, well most of them. Once the search is initiated, the application brings up a new window for each entry it finds, and asks you whether or not to replace it.
Some extra tools let you open files directly by double-clicking them. If not, you can pay a visit to the options menu to choose your default text editor, for more comfort. If you want to search again for the same parameters, the task can be saved, as well as the list of changes in a TXT file.

A few last words


All things considered, we come to the conclusion that Replace Studio Business Edition is a powerful application that might seem a bit shallow at first, but it’s capable of getting you out of sticky situations, where time is of the essence. It’s easy to figure out, set up, making it worth a try overall.
