Hi all

How do I apply the same function to all open buffers?

For example I would like to do a query-replace in all open buffers
like:

for-all-buffers 'query-replace


Greetings

(mapc 'same-function (buffer-list))

This might work, but there's probably a better way using ibuffer or
somthing:

(mapc (lambda (buffer)
	(save-excursion
	  (switch-to-buffer buffer)
	  (call-interactively 'query-replace)))
       (buffer-list))
