How to do a wholesale swap of all instances of one shape to another shape?

I have a design that uses a large amount of a single shape. I've been refining it and now I want to do a wholesale swap one of shape to another shape. I know I can do this one at a time using symbols, but I'm wondering if there is a way to have Illustrator search for all instances of a particualr shape geometry and replace them with the new shape. Maybe a script like this exists?

Yes, there are scripts (do a search fo zamena or zamena size, for example).

And there are other ways as well. Which one depends on the Illustrator version you are using. What version is it?

You may try the built-in Global Edit feature.

Zamena will do exactly what I want. And I had no idea that global editing existed. I learn two new things today. Thank you so much!
