String Find and Replace2.01

When it comes to editing large amounts of documents, such as code or excessive amounts of text, if you need to find and replace a series of words for multiple documents, it can be difficult. String Find and Replace is a program that allows users to search through multiple documents automatically via search strings, and replace them with new strings.

An oddly compartmentalized interface that would benefit from a single, expandable window

The design of String Find and Replace is unusually compact, which can make it a bit hard to navigate and understand at first. The application is split into three different tabs, however there are not multiple functions, to properly work the only function, users need to use all three tabs.A single window that could be expanded to show all the relevant information on a single window would be much more beneficial. There doesn't seem to be any reason for the application to employ a fixed window, with a fullscreen program or just a large one, all the information would fit in a single window.

No supporting features and limited options, yet a single function that does work well

String Find and Replace is extremely streamlined towards its goal, there are not additional options or features that relate even remotely to anything outside its main purpose. The decision is a bit strict perhaps, but it cannot be held against the application since it chooses to specialize.The program can provide reports of every file changed, as well as save a backup copy of any files before it edits them, making sure no essential information is lost. The options are welcomed, yet users might be left wondering if the application couldn't do more.

A compact program that might be overly straightforward, but is exceptionally focused 

Users expecting a comprehensive program to solve a myriad of needs with String Find and Replace won't be content. Nonetheless, for those who just want to find strings and replace them automatically, does the job exceptionally well and will most aspects related to it, making String Find and Replace robust in its own way.
