SEARCHREPLACEMANYGUI This is the graphical version of SearchReplaceMany with many neat little features.

This program will search all files in the list, TargetFiles, for all the strings, SearchStrings, and replace them with their corresponding replacement strings, ReplaceStrings.

For example, you may change all instances of "COMPANY" to "THE MATHWORKS" and all instances of "CLIENT" to "MICHAEL ROBBINS" simultaneously on C:\MATLAB7\LICENSE.TXT and C:\WORK\SNR.M

Provide this function with a CellString of target files, search strings (regex), corresponding replacement strings (regex), prefixes to be applied to all search strings, suffixes, prefixes to be applied to all replacement strings, and suffixes. Also provide a 1 (true) to assume strings are regular expressions or 0 (false) to take strings literally.

It's easier to read the code than forme to explain it.
