Hello
How can I replace the string in a current line only.
It would be nice to be able to distinguish between first and all
occurrances of the string in the current line.

Narrowing the buffer first and then replacing the string seems to be
inconvenient.

Thank You for help

Or did you mean to replace only some characters in that line? Then:

	C-a C-SPC C-e M-x replace-string RET <from> RET <to> RET

Or C-a C-SPC C-e M-% <from> RET <to> RET when you want control
what should be replaced.
