I often need to run search and replace operations on stored data for both renaming and editing file content. I find it simpler to use different applications for the particular operations I need to perform and that's why I developed this set of Find & Replace applications. Using them is simple. Just drag files and/or folders to the application's icon to perform the indicated action. You may drag items to the target field if the application is already running. IMPORTANT: These applications are powerful enough to greatly damage your computer files. Please use them carefully.

This is the one!

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />My file utilities folder contains at least 8 renaming apps that I have downloaded at one time or another. When I need to rename a bunch of files or folders (which isn't often), I rummage through the apps one by one, trying them out. I usually forget which one worked last time, and when I'm done, I forget to toss out the ones I didn't like.<br>
<br>
Not any more. Today I tried <b>Simple Find & Replace - Mac OS X</b>, and I trashed the rest of the renaming apps. When I launched it, I was greeted by a simple window with simple instructions. Within seconds, the job was done. It's extremely intuitive, extremely easy to use, and extremely fast. It's also free.<br>
<br>
Even if you've already paid money for another renaming app, you owe it to yourself to give <b>Simple Find & Replace - Mac OS X</b> a try. The time you save will be worth it.
Wow! What a Lifesaver!
