regexxer

πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

okay bestie, so this manual page is here to briefly document the regexxer command. ngl it exists specifically for the Debian distribution, because the original program literally does not ship with a manual page. so we made one. you're welcome πŸ’…

regexxer is that girl: it's a program that lets you select a group of files and then perform perl-style regular expression search and replace operations on those files, all inside an interactive graphical interface. like, no terminal gymnastics required, it's giving main character energy in a GUI. 🫢
