Lo

I've a few burning needs, so if anyone knows the answers - let me know! :D

1) I need a graphical way of searching text files for a string - and
getting it to replace it (makes for easy re-configuring of files after a
path change)

Most editors have a search & replace function. kedit's (kde) search & replace
funtion can be activated with <CTRL> R. Gedit might be a good candidate for
XFCE but I'm not sure since I have never tried it.

2) Ubuntu had a little graphical app that loaded upon double clicking
DEB files, it let you install them - what is this app? :D

kpackage (also kde) is one that I know of, there may be others I haven't
tried.

3) I am using the XFCE ubuntu install - does this come with an
auto-updater, or do I have to install something to get it to do that?

Does XFCE use gnome apps? If so apt-watch-gnome is a good one.
