Text replacement is easy with AKS Text Replacer
Imagine such a situation. You need to replace certain words in 20 documents scattered all over the folders in a particular directory. However, you should replace not all of them. Everything depends on the context which you must see before taking any action. What would be a traditional way of replacing text? If the files which contain these words are in MS Word format then you would open each document and use Find or Replace functions there. But what if you have plain text documents or strictly computer formats? Then you are in a trouble. Manual text replacement takes much time. Besides, you have no guarantees that you will find all words to be replaced.
However, if you use AKS Text Replacer from AKS-LABS you will certainly solve any problems related to text replacement. The program will seem to you very simple, as it is simple in fact. At the same time, there are a number of functions which makes text replacement convenient and effective.
One of the key advantages of AKS Text Replacer is the fact that you can actually see what words or blocks of text are being replaced. Thus, you can control this process (unlike replacement of words in MS Word). Besides, you do not have to manually open all the documents which you think may contain keywords. AKS Text Replacer will do everything for you. Moreover, specifying special parameters you can narrow search and thus make the entire process even faster.
First of all, it should be noted that AKS Text Replacer will offer you to specify locations and set search options. In fact, you can “tell” the program which folders, files or file types you want to exclude and which ones you want to pay a special attention. Moreover, you can create a list of masks which you either want to use in your search or ignore. This is step one.
Step two implies entering of words or blocks of text. You will need to enter words (blocks of text) you want to replace and their actual replacement words (blocks of texts). If you have additional requirements to text replacement you may use such options as use special chars, use regular expressions and ignore letter case. It is also possible to create Replace groups.
Step three offers you to enter file size and date if you are aware of such information, while step four proposes to choose replacement options: overwriting files, creating back up copies of original files and copying modified files to a specified folder.
