Not quite. That piece only subsitutes /home/sites/site39 with
/home/sites/site40 - nothing "wild".
I'm speaking of _visual_ search and replace with regular expressions
_across_ servers (i.e. two physical different servers, not just virtual
sites).
To stop this before it goes wild - I do not want to go into a religious
discussion of Emacs vs. VI. I'm acknowledgeing both of these programs. I am
however saying that there is much better editors than NoteTab Pro and
similar Windows programs that have been suggested in this thread.
I would recommend people that want a good editor to try out Emacs. It's even
available for your Windows box! - and for free!
