Subject: [9fans] Really basic acme Edit question
Date: Sun, 22 Oct 2006 01:08:18 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <36f49ef93ce42441951ca5dccc0194b2@plan9.jp> (raw)
What are the steps to use the Edit command? I’ve been trying something really simple—changing every occurence of ‘foo’ to ‘bar’— and can’t seem to make it work. I have some variation of
Edit s/foo/bar/
in the window’s tag, middle-select the whole thing, and get an error message saying “Edit: no substitution”. And this is after reading the manuals and /sys/doc/ papers on both acme and sam; I just don’t get it. ☹
