Hi everyone
Today, I was looking for a (graphical) text editor that could search through a directory structure and replace a particular string in lots of config files. Just using find in conjunction with sed wasn't gonna cut it, as I needed to inspect each individual file first (but then do a single subversion commit covering all the files).
While searching on alternativeto.net for an alternative to Notepad++, using this URL: https://alternativeto.net/software/notepad-plus-plus/
I came across Notepadqq, which had the desired functionality: https://notepadqq.com/
Just like Notepad++, it also has syntax highlighting for lots of different file types.
It's great to have such a wide variety of editors out there! :-)
Cheers, Peter
