If you need to make the same changes to multiple files at once, WildEdit will save you a lot of time. It is an interactive tool for advanced users to edit a set of plain text files in a folder hierarchy, filtered by wildcards. This makes it an ideal choice for editing web pages and software source code, or reformatting log files and press releases.

You only need to specify the search text (optional) using regular expressions, replacement text, and wildcard filters, and then let it run. This process can be repeated as needed, and up to the last 10 changes can be undone and redone.
