We have alot of MacWrite II files, and occasionally we need to go through
them all to find and change occurences of a string.  Does anyone know
of a program that can do this?  If it could just find all of the
occurences, that would probably be good enough!  If the program could
search the way that Unix's grep does, that would be super, but even if
it could only search for a string rather than a pattern, it would help
us alot.  We don't mind paying $ for a program like this.

Please reply to huntley@copper.ucs.indiana.edu and I will summarize
and post the responses.

Thanks!
