anyone can help me with the implementation of multiple standard search in one go?

for example, I want to replace more than 1 exact word, but by using standard search I need to type the word I want to search twice (search word A first, then search word B)

also any batch file command(syntax/format) would be helpful

If you want to replace several words by the same single word, you could try (word1|word2|word3) and replace by newword.

If you want to perform multiple replacements, look in the Tool menu. There is an option Batch commands.

Yes, the batch commands menu should do this.
You can use non-regular expressions as part of a batch process, so don't be put off. (You may run into issues if you use certain reserved regex characters such as . $ etc. though). Plain words are fine. I plan to put an option in the next version to allow full use of the batch processor with non-regex text.
