Try using your method to replace a large paragraph of text using regular expressions and variables. its a lot less "complex" to do it with BK replace em.

I do complex search/replaces with regularity, but I suppose it comes down to which tools you're familiar with. Generally, graphical search/replace tools aren't readily available for *nix based machines simply because the commline tools have been around in essentially the same form for 20+ years and everyone knows them. ;)
