    There's a traditional semi-standard utility called `rpl` for making this easy.

    Unfortunately the current maintainer of the active fork decided to remove the `-R` option because they think piping find(1) output into it is better.

    There's some discussion at https://github.com/rrthomas/rpl/issues/9 .

What are some alternatives?

When comparing replace and rpl you can also consider the following projects:

pickdrop - A unix shell script which allows you to "pick" files one at a time and then drop them in one place

ripgrep - ripgrep recursively searches directories for a regex pattern while respecting your gitignore

the_silver_searcher - A code-searching tool similar to ack, but faster.

sd - Intuitive find & replace CLI (sed alternative)
