Quite a useful little tool

Hi all,
Just wanted to point you to a little tool I've just used that is quite useful.
http://sw.ixoft.com/texfinderx/
It allows you to give it multiple xml files and find and replace text. So I just used it to replace a sound file in a rather complicated project. By showing the package contents of the gameproj file and giving the app your scenes and actors xml files it very quickly replaced all occurances of one file with another, which was in about 30 different actors (many unlocked).
I realise I could have just renamed my new file to the old one and overwritten it but when I tried that this time it was causing the game to crash when tested on the actual device. I guess there was some curruption.
I'm sure it could have some other uses as well if you think about it. Do backup your project file though before you go messing with it's xml files.

I use it a lot to edit instances position and sizes without having to open them in GS.
And as StusApps said remember to always backup first.
