I also change hundreds of occurrences of characters ``a la TeX'' in
LaTeX files (say, \'{\i} for í, `? for ¿, etc.) with query-replace:
Meta-Shift-%
You can try
Meta-Shift-%
At the minibuffer prompt
Query replace:
type, say,
¿
and at the prompt
Query replace ¿ with:
type
¿
It will start showing each occurrence of ¿; you can type y for «yes,
replace» n for «no». If after some occurrences you are satisfied with
the results, you can type ! «to replace all remaining matches with no
more questions».
When you are in the Query-replace mode, you can type Control-? to see
all the options.
Best
Axel
