 Warning!
 
  It
                              should be remembered that before you start
                              working with the program, make back up the
                              files to be processed. Processing results
                              can not be undone. In the case of an
                              improper processing of files, or when the
                              outcome inconsistent with the expected
                              must be able to recover files from backup.
 
 Do not process the files
                                if you have no a backup!
 
  The role of
                              the App is searching specific text string
                              values into text files, to remove them or
                              replace by other. The most important
                              feature of the Application is possibility
                              of processing multiple file into the
                              directory and subdirectories. This feature
                              is very important when it is needed to be
                              replaced some values into entire html
                              based Web Service, composed with the very
                              many files, placed into directories and
                              subdirectories. App can change any value
                              in entire web service (such as: web
                              address, color value or any other
                              parameter in html code) one mouse click.

                                The first step is a setting proper text
                                encoding and files format (name

                            If you want to process
                                    files have the extension
                                    not available in
                                      the filter list (html,
                                    txt, rtf), just type it,
                                  without dot of course and press Enter. 
 Example: xml
 
 From

  located on the main screen,
                                  and then point to
                                  the directory where
                                  the files to be processed. 
 
 In the next step, enter
                                  the value to Find field. Value must be
                                  entered exactly like value to replace
                                  existing in the files to be processed.
                                  Search operation is case-sensitive,
                                  spaces and their position is important
                                  as well.

                                    value in to Find field. If you leave Replace field
                                    blank, every occurrence of the value
                                    from the Find field will be erased
                                    from processed files, listed in
                                    Paths And Names list.
                            To start
