#1 RegEx Search and Replace in Files (Feature Request)
Posted by: GNiessen | Date: 2012-04-02 15:00 | IP: IP Logged
Would like to be able to use Regular Expressions in the Search / Replace in Files.
Often while editing a file I realize I need to do the same replace as I just performed on all the files in a directory. I use RegEx frequently and only straight search and replace seems to be currently available.

Regex search works, but I don't think capturing groups work in the replace field. Bug posted here: forum.pspad.com.

My bad, it was user error. Group captures work in PSPad.

therium:Regex search works
How did you get it working? For me, regexes only work for "normal" searches (within the current file), but not for Search/Replace in (multiple) Files.
