Subject: Interactive-form invoked with specified arg
Date: Tue, 4 Jun 2013 09:31:08 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <037e0390-7e59-4239-bf31-1c7e55b269db@v2g2000yqa.googlegroups.com> (raw)

  Consider a FORM which prompts the user to type a character.
E.g, FORM might be

	(y-or-n-p  "Are you there?")
or
	(query-replace "wierd" "weird") .

  Is there a way to programmatically invoke FORM with the
character already specified?  E.g

  (invoke-as-if-I-typed (query-replace "wierd" "weird") "!")

behaves as if I invoked (query-replace "wierd" "weird"),
then, when prompted, typed "!".
