I use a program called rpl You can pick it up here
:http://www.laffeycomputer.com/rpl.html Freshmeat gave it a great score and
I've been impressed with the ease of use. I don't have to use it from and
editor, just the command line. It even works recursively through
directories.

RTFM on sed my son. That is _standard_ behaviour. It's only a wrapper for
sed. If you want them all, then:
s/this/that/g

This is nothing to do with bsed. It's sed. Likewise with perl. You always
want such control.
