About this tool

Turn on “Whole words only” so parts of other words aren't changed (replacing “cat” without touching “category”).

Power users can use regular expressions and groups ($1, $2) in the replacement.

Frequently asked questions

Can I delete a word everywhere?

Yes, leave “Replace with” empty.

What if the regular expression is invalid?

We let you know and the original text is left unchanged.
