Quick vtf crosshair replacement?

Is there a way to replace vtf crosshairs quickly instead of opening every single weapon txt file and pasting the crosshair file name? Like, some program that would let you select all the weapon files and automatically replace the old filename with the new one in all of them

You can do that with notepad ++

Open up one of the files, then use CTRL+F to bring up the search menu for everything you'll need. There should be a way to replace every instance of a word in a folder. (The third tab, I don't know what it's called in english bc i have the swedish version.)

instead of changing the crosshair name in the weapon scripts, the way i do it is i use a set name (e.g. ""file" "vgui/replay/thumbnails/defaultcrosshair"") and rename the vmt and vtf files in the thumbnails folder according to the name in the weapon script, then 'mat_reloadmaterial "thumbnails"' in console (requires sv_cheats 1), that way i can quickly swap while ingame
(also should be noted that you need to modify the vmt file too under "$basetexture" to match the crosshair name)

I'm currently working on a cfg.tf crosshair customizer. If you could wait for like 1-2 weeks, you gonna be able to do it without any trouble c:
Also, whoever has big VTF crosshair packs (not the one that is in VTF crosshairs thread), pm me please, I'm too lazy to extract them from fonts.

pm'd you wavesui's crosshairs (contains extracrispy's own crosshairs, cpma crosshairs, quake crosshairs, those rainbow cross things 1 person in the world uses, etc), leth's crosshair pack, all the in-game crosshairs and default weapon txt files and some other minor stuff
