Message-ID: <87znljuide.fsf@web.de> (raw)

This might be a stupid question:

I want to use M-x replace-regexp like this

s/[a-z]''/$1"/g

the first part [a-z]'' works, but then the mathed lowercase letter is
not reinserted, but a litteral $1.

How does that work in emacs-regex? I don't find the relevant info in
the info file...

Of course I could use \w'' - but I want to know how it works!

Thank You In Advance...
