salathe Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 That's not how files work I'm afraid. Whilst it would be possible if the search and replace values were of the same byte length, in most cases the very minimum needed is to rewrite the rest of the file from the search point onwards. With small files, overwriting the entire contents isn't anything to worry about anyway.
