There is nothing better for massive big data text file data cleaning via bulk search and replace with Regex than EmEditor:
Cloud Monk's Review of the Buggy and Way Overly Complicated Text Editor to AVOID called EmEditor.
SO BUGGY!!! I no longer recommend this product due to numerous keyboard shortcut bugs that the author refuses to fix even after I spend 5 hours documenting them in several emails. His English is very poor so he doesn’t understand what I say. And then asks me to re-explain it differently. Ugh!
It is fine for mouse only use, but if you use only the keyboard and the standard Windows editing keyboard shortcuts, you will be very frustrated.
Yutaka Emura is creator of this very overly complicated text editor. I highly recommend to AVOiD it if you use keyboard shortcuts instead of constantly mousing.
Notepad Plus Plus is FAR superior.

The author is horrible at creating bugs, fixing them and then reintroducing the same bugs again over several years. This is developer Yutaka Emura.
OLD REVIEW:
- “EmEditor is so good, I would gladly pay $300 per year for it. People pay Microsoft that much for MS Word. Having tested more than 30 different editors, I can say it is the fastest text editor on the planet! I use it for editing massively large text files for big data (huge data) and data science since it has extremely fast multi-threaded search and replace that allows me to use only keyboard shortcuts rather than the mouse. Due to the multi-threaded superfast saves I can quickly get back to editing.”
