New in Find And Replace 1.2 (Jun 10, 2013)
- A couple of new features
- Added better Unicode detection to complement MLang detection.
- New - show encoding flag for command line to easily see the file encoding
- Updated MLang detection to use the whole file instead of just first 512B. This would not detect encoding correctly if the file would have some Unicode chars or symbols after 512 bytes.
- New -silent flag to hide window command output
- New -logFile attribute to specify path to log file where command output is saved
New in Find And Replace 1.1 (Jun 10, 2013)
- Added Cancel button to cancel long running Find or Replace operations
- Allow Canceling long running operation
- Allow multiple File Masks
- Previously you would need to either use “*.*” or run Replace multiple times, once for each file mask. This new feature allows you to specify multiple, comma delimited file masks to limit which files you would like to process.
- In many cases it is a lot more efficient to explicitly exclude known binary files like *.exe, *.dll instead of having fnr.exe detect that they are binary.
- There was a bug in last release where fnr.exe would load a file with some foreign characters like ‘ç’ and ‘ã’, but wouldn’t detect the encoding of the file. When file with replacements was saved, some of these characters could have been replaced with ‘invalid’ chars.
- This issue has been fixed and now fnr.exe supports all international files.
New in Find And Replace 1.0 (Jun 10, 2013)
- It contains some major improvements and bug fixes that make fnr.exe the best free open source utility to do batch text replace. At this time it is the only utility that seamlessly supports both windows form as well as command line interface.
- Recording and displaying the statistics related to the search, such as number of files processed, with matches, failes to open, etc..
- The statistics in windows form are updated in real time as the search is happening.
- When running find/replace on command line statistics are displayed at the end.
- Find And Replace (fnr.exe) - file errors
- Support for regular expressions
- Added checkbox to allow finding text using regular expressions
- Find And Replace (fnr.exe) - regular expressions
- Fixed a bug that required you to press enter to continue after running fnr.exe from command line
- Context menu to display containing folder or open the file
- Double click on results row to open the file (similar to double clicking in windows explorer)
- Displaying results on command line has been changed from tabular view to the list.
- It makes results much much more readable, without any messy word wrapping.
- This detection is not 100%, so if possible it is better to use appropriate mask like “*.txt”, to limit files to text files.
New in Find And Replace 0.2 Beta (Jan 20, 2012)
- New features:
- Preview of matches
- Form validation in windows form
- Single executable (71KB)
