Table 6.12. Replace Command Search Examples

Example

Description

 

 

c $/$\$

Replace occurrences of forward slashes with back

 

slashes.

 

 

c/x/y/m

Replace occurrences of "x" in the selected area

 

with "y" using default search case sensitivity.

 

 

c $x$y$m

Replace occurrences of "x" in the selected area

 

with "y" using default search case sensitivity. The

 

string delimiter "$" has been used requiring a space

 

character after the "c."

 

 

c/x/y/e*

Replace lowercase occurrences of "x" with "y"

 

without prompting.

 

 

c/i/something_more_meaningful/w

Replace occurrences of the variable "i" with

 

"something_more_meaningful."

 

 

c/i/j/w=[A-Za-z]

Replace occurrences of the word "i" with "j" and

 

specify valid characters in a word to be alphabetic

 

characters.

 

 

replace/Test/TEMP/v

Replace occurrences of the word "test" with the

 

word "temp", with the case preserved. For example:

 

Occurrences of "Test" are replaced with "Temp".

 

• Occurrences of "test" are replaced with "temp".

 

Occurrences of "tesT" are replaced with "TEMP"

 

 

(because a mixed case will retain the actual re-

 

 

placement that you typed).

 

Occurrences of "TEST" are replaced with

 

 

"TEMP".
