This is the legacy version of RexReplace

rreplace

Regex replace in files from your CLI - with a tiny footprint.

Works on any version of Node.js since 0.6

> rreplace pattern replace filepath [regexFlags [encoding]]

Pattern is a regex and may capture groups
Replacement may refer to captured groups. The first group is named $1
Filepath can only contain a path to one particular file (no globs)
Default is global case-insensitive multiline search (regexFlags is default gmi)
Default file encoding is utf8

> rreplace '(foo)(.*)' '$2$1' myfile.md 
  # 'foobar' is now 'barfoo' in myfile.md
