Well, it can be used for many things but is most useful for website developers handling large documents. One example is when xhtml came about and people wanted to convert from html to xhtml. The following quotes are from www.w3schools.com
"A general "find-and-replace" function was executed to replace all uppercase tags with lowercase tags. The same was done for attribute names."
"Empty tags are not allowed in XHTML. The <hr> and <br> tags should be replaced with <hr /> and <br />.
A general "find-and-replace" function was executed to swap the tags."
hope this helped :].
