Short: Powerful Search/Replace tool V2.1
Author: hveister@snakemail.hut.fi (Henri Veistera)
Uploader: hveister@snakemail.hut.fi (Henri Veistera)
Version: 2.1
Type: util/sys
Requires: OS2.1 (V37)
Replaces: util/sys/stringer.lha
The current version of Stringer is not just a Search replacement. It is a
powerful search and replace tool with a large number of options to get the
desired results. Currently Stringer has among others the following
features:
- Stringer can search for any number of multiple strings
- Strings can be of any size and they can be substrings of other strings
searched for and they can be read from a file
- Search and Replace capability for multiple source and destination strings
with optional individual prompting and backups
- Can search for strings in archive files (.lha, .zip, etc.)
- Can hunt for files using file names or file comments
- Search statistics for matched strings: match counts, relative space usage
and relative frequencies
- Can start a pager for immediate viewing of the matched file
- Various options for modifying the output to your needs
- Complete emulation of C:Search with identical ouput if so desired
- Comprehensive documentation with multiple examples and on-line help
- Fastest operation of any utility of this kind
New in this version (2.1):
- Added the ability to insert hex or decimal numbers into search and
replace strings
- Changed the NONUMS option to NONUM for complete Search emulation
- Fixed a bug where if the CASE and QUIET options were used together
with the REPLACE option the replace was not done.
