    UltraEdit Features

    1.  Column based text editing
    2.  Support for large files
    3.  Hex Editor
    From quick inline finds to massive replaces across your entire project, no one does search like UltraEdit. Find / replace across files, Perl regular expressions, column-based search, line filters, and more...when it comes to search, there's almost nothing UltraEdit can't do!
    UltraEdit's text editing features make editing lists and columns an intuitive experience, not the exercise in tedium it used to be. With features like multi-caret editing, column/block editing and multi-select, it's a simple text editor when you want it to be, and a multi-cursor power editor when you need it to be.
