Subject: Advanced query-replace-regexp in code
Date: Wed, 27 May 2009 07:03:02 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f3f72811-6305-4f62-98af-3a86d6646e9f@e20g2000vbc.googlegroups.com> (raw)

I can't get the following example to work programmatically.

  M-x replace-regexp
  Replace regexp:  \(\w+\)
  Replace regexp with:  \,(capitalize \1)

Is this only possible in interactive query-replace?
If so should I use a combination of while(), looking-at(), re-search-
forward(), replace-match(), match-string() etc.

Thanks in advance,
Per Nordlöw
