Description luigide 2014-05-30 20:35:01 UTC 
hi.i like kde.thank you very much for this product.i use kfind frequently.
i think it will be very usefull to add replace support to kfind.
it search "pattern" into files in serch directory, if matches "pattern" then replace it for replacement for every file.wow what a nice feature:) 

PS:it may be done such like:  add a checkbox named "replace" to "Contents" tab.
add a textbox/lineedit under new checkbox. So gui part is done! Good luck for logic:)

Best regart.

Reproducible: Always

Kate has this feature as plugin.

So making this done may be a duplication.

So im sorry for inconvenience.

With KDE5, KTextEditor plugins will be removed. It is a good idea to add the functionality from the Kate replacer here and maybe use Kfind in Kate.
