Subject: Regexp Query/Replace Without Trashing Original Text
Date: Sat, 31 Jul 2004 03:37:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1091270054.672720@sj-nntpcache-5> (raw)

Hi,

How can I convert something like this

$GLOBAL_VAR

to this:

$global_array(GLOBAL_VAR)

??

Its easy to do a regexp query/replace for "\$[A-Z]", but I don't really want
to change either the leading dollar sign ("$") or the trailing uppercase
text (GLOBAL_VAR).

TIA,
-Tennis
