The prefix argument of `query-replace' is already assigned to the delimited meaning to replace matches surrounded by word boundaries. To reverse the last two query-replace history elements you already can use `M-% M-p RET M-p M-p M-p RET'. > This would be useful to undo a replacement. Isn't the undo command a much easier way to undo the last replacement? -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
