Replacing text in multiple files?

Can anyone suggest a method of performing 'find and replace' on multiple plain text files?

MED will do a search and replace on all the open files and it'll cope with opening a lot of files if necessary. It's a great wee program, it's been my primary text editor since the OS/2 days (yes I did have the misfortune of having to use OS/2).

sed or awk, possibly with grep.
