Kedit-like ALL command for emacs

Kedit-like ALL command for emacs

[Tom]

Do you know a package which implements the KEDIT ALL command for Emacs?

Looks good. Thanks. 

I wonder why it is not part of the Emacs distribution. Seems like a
useful package.

After reviewing what KEDIT ALL is; it seems to me all you want to do
is--in an EMACS buffer--regardless of the version or type of EMACS:

Mx list-matching-lines

I haven't used KEDIT. 

I did try out all.el. Within the occur-like buffer that all.el pops up,
one can edit the matches and have the replacements propagated to the
searched buffers.

But list-matching-lines pops up a read-only buffer. Also the last line
of the docstring says `In any case the searched buffers are not
modified'.

I think OP wanted something where the searched buffers are modified from
within the occur buffer.

Yes.

List-matching-lines is simply an alias for occur, so it's definitely 
not what I asked for, all.el on the other hand is pretty close.

It sounds like Per's `all.el' should be about what you want.

Maybe this will also help; dunno:  You can use `icicle-occur' (bound to `C-'' by
default) on any number of buffers.  You can use it to search and replace text,
where the replacement happens on demand, on the fly.  Unlike
`query-replace(-regexp)', you can skip around and just hit a key when you want
to make a change - you are not queried about the hits.

*Completions* shows you essentially what `occur' and `all' show you, but without
any context lines.  And the hits are highlighted in the original buffer (which
shows the complete context).  Unlike `occur' and `all', the hits change
dynamically as you type text into the minibuffer.  IOW, it's like an instant,
incrementally updated `occur'/`all'.
