search replace with regex

I have been using Funduc Search/Replace with works command line, as a
gui, and with scripts to do multiple search-replaces on multiple
files.

It work fine, except it uses a proprietary regex quite different from
Java Regex. I would like something just like it, but that use Java
Regex. I have unsuccessfully tried to talk the authors into supporting
Java syntax.

see http://mindprod.com/jgloss/searchreplace.html
to see what I mean.

I have not found anything suitable is a short google search. On my
todo list is to write one. What do you use?
