Operations ‣ Rules ‣ Utilities ‣ Tools ‣ replaceInText

Searches for the textToSearch in the given text and replaces all the matches with replaceWith.

A regular expression (“regex”) can also be used as the textToSearch. In this case replaceWith can be used with $1, $2, … to refer to the groups/parenthesized expressions in the regex.

Please note that when using a regex, the modifier “g” must be used to replace all the occurrences. Otherwise, only the first occurrence will be replaced.

Examples

• (without Regex): replaceInText("ene mene muh", "en", "AAA") → "AAAe mAAAe muh"
• (with Regex): replaceInText("ene mene muh", /m(.)/g, "A$1A") → "AAAe mAAAe muh"
