I tried a shareware(?) version of a DA "MacSink" and immediately purchased the
commercial version, Vantage.  Besides being able to do all types of case
conversions, it is faster at search/replace than ANY wp package I have!  Where
Word, WordPerfect, or Nisus will take a finite amount of time (sometimes up to
15 minutes) to replace linefeeds with returns, Vantage does it in a second (I
frequently have over 1000 replacements). It makes sloppines in forgetting to setfile filters almost forgivable.
