You can make **Replace All** a bit safer for renaming variables by
turning on **Case sensitive** and **Entire word**.
Hope this helps.

Yeah, I don't know if I would use "replace all" on a large program. I
do a
lot of short ones where I sometimes don't pick a descriptive variable.
Those would be ideal scenarios for me to use "replace all".

One thing I find useful is to set a shortcut for "Replace and Find
Next".
I use "Cmd-Opt-F" which is normally "Live Search" I guess.
I use Cmd-E and Cmd-Opt-E as described to set up a search/replace and
then
cycle through the document doing Cmd-G to advance to the next
instance and
either Cmd-G to skip it or Cmd-Opt-F to replace and advance. That way
I can
contemplate each replacement to make sure I'm not going to change
something
I don't intend. And then if it does seem safe and there are a lot of
instances I do a Cmd-Opt-= to finish the job.
Replace all makes me nervous, but that's what version control is for,
right?

Remember that "Cmd-Opt-E" is "Use Selection for Replace",
complementing
"Cmd-E (use selection for find), so a sequence could be
1. select text,
2. Cmd-E (use selection for find),
3. replace the text with what you want,
4. Cmd-Opt-E (use the new text for replace)
5. Dangerous part: Cmd-Opt-= (replace all).

If I have a word highlighted throughout my code, is there a key
combo
that allows me to replace the one instance and it replaces them all?
Hey Bob,
Not at present.
You can use Cmd-E to “Use Selection for Find” though.
… and then ALT-CMD-= for "Replace All".
And if you feel courageous ;-) you could combine the both with a
KeyboardMaestro-Macro in the wished key combo.
Regards,
Vlad
Awesome, I will try that out. :)
