Use fnr utility its better than other famous utility since it can search and replace based on regular expressions. Also for the UI lovers you can configure options in UI and it can generate command line string which can then be used in your script. Very easy to use even as command line stirng.

Also it is single exe without any dependicies, so easy to use.
