Josiah,

I would think the need for a Global search and replace is most likely to be 
rare and as a result of a mistake in the development/update of a 
TiddlyWiki, whist caution is advised you can open a tiddlywiki file in a 
good editor like NotePad++ and use all its text search and replace 
features. The only thing I suggest is always search first to confirm your 
search string does not have unexpected consequences. This is a true global 
search and replace.

Inside an active tiddlywiki a global search and replace is not that global, 
perhaps you mean search and replace in multiple standard tiddlers text?

I started a little exercise to list every word in a tiddler and compare 
each word against a set of values and apply a replace if necessary. this 
could then be used against multiple tiddlers. I have not yet got far on 
this.

Regards
Tony
