    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    I use nedit for this sort of stuff. It has a very good regex w/ search/replace capability, and it can handle multiple files up to your system memory limits. It is a GUI text editor, and can handle Unix or Windows style line separators.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
