Simple, but very useful software

Have you ever built a menu on a website, and changed it? What have you done if you cannot use iFrames? (I mean, who would use inline frames?) Have you gone through every single page and made the menu consistent manually? This is what I have done before now as I cannot use server-side programming with my current website.

Last night I was working on a small program to make my life much easier when updating my menu on my website. What I have is a small program with two inputs that are used as replacements for parts of the HTML text files. It goes through all the files in sequence, replacing the menu with a new one. It makes it much easier to update the menu and much easier to replace strings within text files.

Edit: This program is no longer available separately and is available as a Wonderword plugin.
