How Find and Replace Works
The tool searches for all occurrences of the target text using literal matching or regular expressions.
Each match is replaced with user-defined replacement content.
Whole-word detection ensures matches only occur at word boundaries (prevents partial matches).
Case-sensitive mode can be enabled for exact character matching.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q.What is regex mode?
A. Regex mode allows advanced pattern matching — for example, \d+ matches any sequence of digits.
Q.What does whole word mean?
A. Whole word ensures only complete words are matched — 'cat' won’t match 'category'.
Q.Is search case-sensitive?
A. By default, no. You can enable Case Sensitive mode for exact matching.
