I am using the Find Files tool to locate occurrences of a certain function call "myfunc" in group of MATLAB files. I am able to locate all calls to "myfunc(x)", and would like to replace these calls with "myfunc(y)" without having to go through each file listing and modifying it manually.

The ability to simultaneously replace multiple occurrences of a statement in different files from the Find Files tool is available starting with MATLAB R2025a.
