Message-ID: <E1BYxfY-0007PL-Ik@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87oenqa4lu.fsf@mail.jurta.org> (message from Juri Linkov on Fri, 11 Jun 2004 11:19:57 +0300)
How about typing a special key (say, `M-e', where "e" stands for
"eval" or "expression") in the second prompt for a replacement string
to switch it to expression reading mode, and after typing RET
to call `query-replace-regexp-eval' instead of `query-replace-regexp'.
Actually, this means typing:
C-M-% from-string RET M-e to-expr RET
This is rather obsure, and ad hoc. So it is probably harder to
remember than M-x que TAB - TAB - TAB, which works now
and can be found systematically from the command name.
