Batch Replace

The Batch >> button in the Replace dialog extends the dialog box to include a list for multiple Find/Replace combinations with options. Pressing the Batch Replace All button then replaces all of the multiple matched strings with the respective specified strings. This user interface allows much faster and more intuitive replace operations for frequent use of the replace feature.

The Import… button allows you to add all search terms in a TSV file. If you have a large number of find strings, as in over 100, you may want to Add a Linked File under the ▼ menu on the Add to Batch button—or just drag-and-drop a file into the list. This will combine all Find strings as one entry in the Find list box and reduce memory usage.

Bulk Replace All greatly improves the performance of batch replace with a different algorithm. You can read about the differences in this blog post.
