Hi.

See:
Code:
       regexxer  is  a program that allows you to select a group of files, and
       perform perl-style regular expression search and replace operations  to
       the files, in an interactive graphical interface.

I tried this, and it worked for me. In a simple GUI display It found the files, then found the strings, then changed the strings, then saved the files.

This was on a system:
Code:
OS, ker|rel, machine: Linux, 3.16.0-4-amd64, x86_64
Distribution        : Debian 8.4 (jessie) 
regexxer - ( /usr/bin/regexxer, 2014-10-01 )

Best wishes ... cheers, drl
