Hi Everyone,

Thank you for all of the interesting options for text editors. After exploring
them a bit, I see that they all handle my original request. However, I have
now gotten clear on a feature that I would really love.

I need to clean up files on a regular basis where I would like to run a
series of regex find and replace commands. I would like to be able to
store these commands into a macro or a set of macros.

I tried downloading and playing with Notepad++, but it's macros do not
support the find and replace command. The other editors have to be
purchased, though they do support a free trial period. Does anyone know
if any of these editor will do what I want so that I don't have to download
and try out each one of them? The available documentation online doesn't
answer my question.

Thanks,
Stefan
