I need advice on a good free GREP tool to not just Search, but also replace strings in multiple files. Any ideas or existing ahk scripts to do this well?

InfoRapid Search&Replace.

Hmm I have implemented a variant of GREP. But it does return lines only without the ability to replace. I did tried to add that feature, but could not do it.

WildReplace is very good, free, and portable (all settings/history are stored in a local ini file). Lots of nice features (including a regex tester).

Have a look at the TF library http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=46195 (TF_RegExReplace(InLines)) might be what you want, see the examples and documentation on how to use in Files-and-folders loops.
