Review of Aba Search and Replace with video

20 Apr 2012

FindMySoft, a software download directory, published a Quick Look Video showcasing Aba Search and Replace 2.2 interface and features. You can watch the video and read a review of my program at their site.

Some clarifications to their review. Aba cannot search and replace in MS Word documents (yet!). About being “too simple for advanced users”: Aba’s support for regular expressions includes variable-length lookbehind and Unicode character classes; most search-and-replace tools lack these features. Generally, I try to keep the interface clean and less cluttered than competitors while adding advanced features for power users.
