> Have two thousand strings which all need the same edits? No need to do a find/replace operation, you can do it directly in the editor.

I might be missing something here, but how is making 2000 individual selections better than `:%s/oldstring/newstring/g`?

I'm guessing that you have a rule for setting up those 2000 selection, or something?

I mean, even for like 5 identical edits, the regex is going to be faster, so you must have a short way of performing the multi-selection.
