I need to replace some "tab" with null char. I do: --replace-regexp ---\\tab (in when it ask me wich char to replace) ----RETURN (to insert nothing in the replace) emacs find about 96 replacement. Then, I open the file with MS word, and I find that emacs, replace the tab, with space. I want that it replace with null char, not space. Can it be a win prob.? TIA Renato
