Subject: Word Delimited Query Replace (was: read-regexp)
Date: Sat, 18 Oct 2008 19:23:09 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <878wsl27pv.fsf@jurta.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <uiqrqkrc8.fsf@gnu.org> (Eli Zaretskii's message of "Sat, 18 Oct 2008 14:41:59 +0200")
BTW, I discovered a UI problem: to prepare the patch it was necessary
to rename the string "default" but not its plural form "defaults" in
read-regexp. So I selected the region around the body of read-regexp
and typed `C-s default C-u M-%'. The C-u prefix argument of query-replace
means to replace only matches surrounded by word boundaries, but while
implementing isearch-query-replace a few years ago we missed this case,
so currently isearch-query-replace just ignores it.
The patch below fixes this problem by adding the prefix argument
DELIMITED to isearch-query-replace and isearch-query-replace-regexp that
has the same meaning as the prefix argument DELIMITED of query-replace
and query-replace-regexp.
Also I found another problem: there is no indication in the query-replace
minibuffer prompts about the fact that replacements are word-delimited.
This is unlike the regexp mode where there is such indication.
So in addition to currently existing possible replacement prompts:
Query replace regexp
Query replace regexp in region
the patch below adds similar prompts when the word-delimited argument
is non-nil:
Query replace word
Query replace word in region
