In text editors like Notepad and vi editor, we can find a string and replace it with another one. It is not possible to find multiple strings and replace with a single string. This paper reveals other 2 approaches: Finding multiple strings and replacing it with a single string, finding single string and replacing it with multiple strings. Java based string manipulations have been carried out on the contents of the file to implement our functionalities. Thus, our tool provides excellent portability option.
