# spacemod
spacemod is a text search-and-replace tool optimized towards refactoring
code.
It is very similar to fastmod,
but with some additional features:
- Undo stack. Approved a diff too soon? Hit
[u]ndo to revert.
- Yes to all diffs like this. Auto-approve future diffs with the exact same content.
- Parenthesis-matching (experimental). Besides regex, spacemod also
supports a custom regex-like language that requires less escaping and
whitespace-handling.
- Parallelism.
spacemod is not quite as CPU-efficient as fastmod, but
compensates by using background threads to search files while you approve
diffs.
