Text editing has come a long way since the early days of word processors and WildGem is proof of this. Saying that it is an advanced "find and rename" utility would be a gross understatement. This lightweight utility allows you to perform all sorts of operations on text blocks, which are not possible in most word processors. Though it's not a full-fledged text editor, the application can be invaluable when it comes to replacing words and phrases, due to its smart functionality.

WildGem is distributed as a freeware application and it can be used on almost any Windows platform. Downloading its setup package and installing its core components doesn't involve any complicated settings and it should take only a few seconds to complete the operation. Also, you don't have to install any prerequisite tools and you don't have to sacrifice too many resources.

The user interface presents two panels, where your original and modified texts are presented side by side. Additionally, the software places a wide range of controls at your disposal, on the upper half of the window. You can start replacing strings right away, by simply typing the word or phrase you wish to located and the one you wish to replace it with, in separate input fields. As you type, the matching words or phrases will be highlighted in both previews.

WildGem is capable of much more than finding and replacing the words you type. With the available options, you can set up advanced replacement commands. For example, you can set the application to identify and replace words that begin and end with a certain letter. It can also match single or multiple digits, white spaces and much more. It is also possible to use logical operators, like "OR" and "NOT", to create complex search queries.

When it comes to finding and replacing text strings, there are no limits to what you can do with WildGem.

Pros

The software provides you with numerous text replacement options. It lets you set up complex search queries, with logical operators. It presents a preview of your changes, before you make any actual modifications.

Cons

There are no obvious issues to mention.
