Re: History list for %^{...} in capture

[Philip Hudson <phil.hudson@iname.com>]

OK, that's what was shown in that foregoing discussion I mentioned. In
which case, I guess it would be a good idea to copy that
implementation to Worg, or rather copy it to a github repo and link to
that from Worg. Or would it be better going into /contrib? Or its own
ELPA package?

Can't remember whose implementation it was ATM. I'll go back, find it,
and ask them off-list.

(Sorry for top-posting. I'm stuck with GMail for the moment).
