A few years ago I broached this subject with Arthur Knapp and we

You have probably read about the Satimage osax. You may want to know
that Smile (by the same authors, us) implements the Satimage osax'
Regular Expressions into a "Find" dialog able of such things as
replacing all occurrences of some string through all files of a given
folders, or through all open windows - using, or not, the Regular
Expressions as well as the other usual "Find" options.
Furthermore, using the "Find" dialog makes it really easy to debug
complex Regular Expressions.
Smile's "Replace" is very fast, except when you have it work on a
window with styled text, which requires much more manipulation.
