Hi,

I'm trying to use dired-do-query-replace-regexp, but have had some
problems.

I gave the following responses when requested:

Query replace in marked files (regexp): Diffusion_manager

Query replace Diffusion_manager by: Diffusion

To be clear, I'm trying to replace all occurrences of the string
Diffusion_manager by Diffusion.

However, it only seems to do a replacement in the first couple of
files (as in the order displayed by dired),

There are a lot of other files in the directory in question, which
contain the string Diffusion_manager, but those strings aren't getting
replaced.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I can give further details if useful.

Please cc me on any reply if possible. I normally read this list via
the newsgroup gnu.emacs.help, so might miss a reply.

Thanks.                                                          Faheem.
