Frequently asked questions

What does "whole words" mean?

It only replaces full words. For example "cat" will not change "category".

What are regular expressions?

A pattern language for advanced search, like \d+ for any number. Leave it off if you are not sure.

Can I use line breaks in the replacement?

Yes. Type \n in the replace box when regular expressions are on.
