Replace selected literal text in a browser-local text area.
Find and Replace
Literal matching only; regular expressions are not enabled. Source and replacement are each limited to 100,000 characters.
A QUICK WALKTHROUGH
How to use this tool
- Paste source text and enter the literal text to find.
- Enter replacement text and choose case and scope options.
- Replace, review the match count, and copy the result.
Literal matching by design
The tool uses literal string matching only. Regular expressions are intentionally unavailable, so punctuation and metacharacters are treated as ordinary text.
Bounded local processing
Source, search, and replacement values are each limited to 100,000 characters. Processing and copying happen in the browser.
GOOD TO KNOW
