Subject: regexp repacement, how to present replacement to user?
Date: Sat, 13 Oct 2007 17:00:41 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200710131700.42100.pogonyshev@gmx.net> (raw)
Hi,
I basically have a loop of `re-search-forward' with optional `replace-match'
after that. I'd like to ask user if the particular match should be replaced
or not. However, I'd like to present user with end-result strings, i.e. not
regexp and replacement with \N strings, but the match string and what
replacement would be in this case. The former is as easy as (match-string 0),
but the second is not obvious how to do.
I.e., to clarify, I'd like this:
Replace "foo-bar" with "foo bar"?
instead of this:
Replace "\([[:alpha:]]+\)-\([[:alpha:]]+\)" with "\1 \2"?
Paul
