Script to find/replace text in layer names?

[Sequitur]

I'm looking for a script that can do a standard text "find and replace" of group names and layer names within photoshop. I'm not sure if this is actually doable, but it would be helpful if anyone knows of such a routine. I'm working with documents that have 1000+ layers that need to conform to a particular naming convention and something like this would definitely save some time.

I don't know if you already have found a script that renames layers.
(I just registered at retouchpro, your post is over 1 year old..)
If you haven't you can find one here:

look in the left menu under PSCS2/3, there you can find the Layer Name Editor script.
