Sorry to have been unclear. Yes, after one search and replace operation, we get a individual report telling us how many occurrences have been modified.

But if you perform a group search and replace of -say- ten regexes, you get only one cumulative number which means absolutely nothing.

My wish would be to be able to record each individual report (on a kind of table for example) so that I can be sure that everything has been done.

To give an example, here is the group of regex I use with every new EPUB produced by writer2xhtml. Up to now I play them one after another. Most apply for "all text files", one for "style sheet files"
