Hi,
In some definition, I have
==
(insert "-- \n")
==
Let's say that the text is
==
dummy text
==
It then writes
==
dummy text
- --
==
That's nice, but my text is not that one, unfortunately. Let's say
that the text is
==
dummy text
- - --
==
How can I make an `insert' to overwrite the first `-' and the related
space? With
==
dummy text
- - --
==
I would like to have
==
dummy text
- --
==
by simply calling insert. Is it possible? I know that this is possible
in C language.
Thanks.
