Subject: Keyboard macro and regexp syntax search
Date: Thu, 20 Dec 2007 12:44:10 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8e0f9a74-6582-441f-b16a-0ae62af0e142@s12g2000prg.googlegroups.com> (raw)
Here's a key sequence which searches a whitespace character with a non-
whitespace character after it and moves right to terminate the search
there (just an example):
M-C-s \s-\S- <right>
According to the macro editor it is recorded like this:
;; Keyboard Macro Editor. Press C-c C-c to finish; press C-x k RET to
cancel.
;; Original keys: M-C-s \ s \ S <right>
Command: last-kbd-macro
Key: none
Macro:
M-C-s ;; isearch-forward-regexp
\ ;; self-insert-command
s ;; self-insert-command
\ ;; self-insert-command
S ;; self-insert-command
<right> ;; forward-char-nomark
The dash (-) character is missing after the syntax matcher (\s and
\S), so the macro doesn't work at playback. Is it a bug?
