Agree with Larry about Perl - the Swiss Army knife of text processing.

Most of the time, TextPad does it for me. http://www.textpad.com/ It's a 
general-purpose text editor that supports regular expressions in open 
files and on disc. Also supports a range of character encodings 
including Unicode in UTF-8 and UTF-16, which is increasingly handy.

The best of the lightweights is BBEdit, but it's only available on Mac.

Or there's a Windows Emacs, which inspires strong emotions of all kinds 
among its users.
