If you don't mind the file names being made upper case and they're already all 8.3 format, this will work and create .BAK backup files of all the changes. It assumes the files are all .php. If they're something else, substitute it in the penultimate line. It uses a [ to seperate searched for text and substitute text.
Create a directory C:\SCRIPTS and copy your files into it
Go <Start><Run> cmd <CR>
Enter 'cd c:\scripts' <CR>
Enter 'edit cmds.txt' <CR>
Enter '1,r' followed by the character sequence you want to search for followed by '[' followed by its replacement text
Enter <CR>
Enter 'e' <CR>
Enter <CTRL><HOME>
Enter <ALT>S followed by R
Enter '[' and press the tab key
Enter <CTRL>Z
Enter <ALT>A
Press <CR> when informed the change is complete
Enter <ALT>F followed by X followed by Y
Enter 'for %a in (*.php) do edlin %a < cmds.txt' <CR>
Enter 'exit' <CR>
