(s-replace-regexp "\\<\\([Mm]eter\\|[Mm]etri\\)" "Me" "Metermetri") But executing the expression gives only "Memetri" rather than "Meme". The string regexp in therefore wrong, as it does not achieve replacements o= n all matches. What kind of regexp is required to perform a complete match and replace?
