Perl has in built in place text replacement facility:
$ find <folder> -type f -print0 | \
xargs perl -pi -e 's/<find>/<replace>/g'
If you need a backup of the files with name .bak use
$ find <folder> -type f -print0 | \
xargs perl -pi.bak -e 's/<find>/<replace>/g'
i think it should have been xargs -0 perl...
