TweakFS String Search & Replace

Building an application or website consists of writing down tons of lines of code in order to make it possible for the end user to make use of your functions without them breaking down. Writing code can be done even in plain text editors, and accidents can happen, such as small typos messing it up. You can easily look them up and replace them with TweakFS String Search & Replace.

Lightweight and easy to use

A neat thing about the application is that it doesn’t need to be installed on your computer to work, which means it can be run from the moment download is finished, and carried around on a thumb drive. No need to worry about the health status of the target PC, because registries are not a dependency, thus left intact.
The main window holds all elements and functions you get to work with. Accommodation is done in the blink of an eye, with most requirement fields equipped with clear tags, while the general appearance makes it easy to identify functions you need.

Instantly replace with custom strings

First of all, you need to specify the type of file you’re looking to edit, with the possibility to choose from TXT, HTML, PHP, INI, and CFG, so don’t expect to search and replace in rich formats like Word documents. You can have load confirmation window show up, or history tracked to later on search for the same string easier.
Although you can’t drag a folder to have it scanned, the built-in browse dialog is easy enough to use. Sadly, you can have sub-folders targeted as well, so you need to know the exact location of the file. All files of the selected type are shown in a list, and content in a different pane.
Two fields need to be filled in, one with the string you’re looking for, while the other with what to replace, but character casing is not taken into account. What’s more, be sure to make a backup of original files, because they’re replaced as soon as you initiate the search and replace function.

To sum it up

All things considered, we come to the conclusion that TweakFS String Search & Replace is a practical application you can use to search and replace text strings in plain text files and HTML documents almost on the spot. Although the set of features feels a little rough around the edges, it deserves a try overall.
