BATCH / ONE VALUE PER LINE
Up to 200 lines, one at a time, in this browser. Each line takes the place of text and everything else stays as you set it. Nothing is uploaded, and the row limit is not exceeded silently.
METHOD / LOCAL RUN
Literal substring comparison finds occurrences with optional case folding. The local result replaces either the first or all matches.

FAQ
This does not use regular expressions, edit files, preserve external document history, or understand word boundaries or language semantics.
No. This published tool runs locally in your browser. UtilityForge does not send the values entered in this workbench to a server.
No. This workbench runs in the page: Text, Find literal text, Replace with, Replace all matches, Case-sensitive are read by the code your browser already downloaded, and UtilityForge receives neither the values nor the result.
Yes, and it is enforced rather than advertised: Text (100,000 characters), Find literal text (1,000 characters) and Replace with (1,000 characters). The limit is a browser input limit on a tool that runs on this device, so nothing is truncated after being sent anywhere.
