Subject: "\":Converting "dired-do-rename-regexp" into a "query-replace"?
Date: 29 Jan 2010 18:26:35 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <hjvqrb$3cl$1@panix1.panix.com> (raw)

Subj: "\\":Converting "dired-do-rename-regexp" into a "query-replace"?

I need to turn this:

    (dired-do-rename-regexp "Lendman_1_\\([0-9][0-9]\\)\\([0-9][0-9]\\)\\([0-9][0-9]\\)_100000.mp3"     "\\3\\1\\2-S.L.mp3")

into:

    (query-replace-regexp   "FROMPAT"  "TO-STRING"    nil (if (and transient-mark-mode mark-active) (region-beginning)) (if (and transient-mark-mode mark-active) (region-end)))


(the dired one works fine; now I want to adjust the regexps, but test them in an ascii file, not as file-names in dired.)

So, once I did that, how to convert it BACK into the dired-form>?

Thanks!

David
