Find and Replace package

Find and replace in the current buffer or across the entire project in Atom.

Usage

You can open find and replace for each individual buffer by navigating to Find > Find in Buffer or find and replace for an entire project by navigating to Find > Find in Project. To close, press Find in Buffer or Find in Project again, respectively.

Once opened, the first text box is used to find phrases that can also be replaced by content in the second text box. Replace All will replace all instances of the first text box's text. If using find in project, there is also an additional text box that allows you to specify which directories/files are to be searched.

There are also multiple options available while using find and replace:

• .* - Use Regex
• Aa - Match case
• " - Only in selection (not available for find in project)
• \b - Whole word (not available for find in project)
