#### Multi-threaded regex search-and-replace with diff preview and .bak undo

Regex Search and Replace is an independent multi-threaded developer search
and batch replacement tool for Linux source trees, inspired by classic
grepWin workflows.

Key Features:

* Multi-Threaded RegEx and Literal Search: scan source trees across folders
  with wildcard file masks, excluded directory filters, size/date limits,
  case sensitivity, dot-matches-newline, multiline, whole-word matching,
  and automatic NUL-byte binary file skipping.
* Side-by-Side Dry-Run Diff Preview: inspect matched lines with detected
  file encoding, line numbers, match counts, and highlighted Old vs New
  replaced lines before modifying any file on disk.
* Safe Batch Replace and 1-Click Rollback: execute multi-file replacements
  with automatic .bak backup creation and 1-click Undo/Restore rollback,
  plus cleanup for verified backups.
* Saved Presets and Hit Statistics: save named regex/replace presets in
  JSON, view hit breakdowns by file extension, and export CSV or TXT reports.
* Bilingual English and Vietnamese interface with instant runtime switching.

Disclaimer: This project is an independent open-source tool and is not
affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by grepWin authors.
