Hello,
Do you have a tool to modify a given string into an other for all the wiki database ? Thanks

That's a pretty tall order. Would you mind telling us just what you're trying to accomplish?
I can't imagine many situations where this would be warranted, but perhaps I simply lack imagination...

well, maybe in a table or two. but if I wanted to take a 30MB database and search+replace a string because the site has changed its name for instance, then I'd dump the DB, use sed to S+R and restore it. it's crude but works as long as it's not a reserved SQL word or something. :)
