On Linux, KATE and on Windows Notepad++. Use powerful regex and other programming tools. Also both project based & multitab. (Or for real old school emacs or vi).
Or do a Perl script (a write only language to automate file I/O and regex). I've converted old style CP/M & DOS Wordstar to proper plain text (only returns at paragraphs) with regex in Perl.
Then LO Writer (Mac, Windows, Linux). Edit headings and paragraph styles, using native odt format. An EXTRA docx Save As. Then Calibre Docx-> epub (no editing needed) or else Sigil
