Message-ID: <E1JB1zA-00063i-8f@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87abnm8w05.fsf@jurta.org> (message from Juri Linkov on Thu, 03 Jan 2008 23:46:42 +0200)

    One way to move thru the history of recent pairs is to put all pairs to
    the default list of M-%.

I am not sure what that means.  Do you mean, instead of putting both
args separately in the history list, put a string of the form "FROM ->
TO" in it?

That seems kludgy.  Also, it raises two questions:

1. Does that actually work?

2. Would that make it impossible to do the things you can do now with
the history in query-replace, such as use a previous replacement
target as a pattern to search for?
