[9fans] Acme, Edit, code and newline

Hi there,

I'm using p9p's acme, and I would like to take a piece of code and change,
for example this:

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {

For this:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{

So, for doing that, I thought about using some regexps and the Edit command.

I would like to work with some generic regexp, so I wrote the following:

Edit , x/^[^ ]+[ ]*[^(]*\([^)]*\)[ ]*\{[ ]*$/ s/[ ]*{[ ]*$/\n{/g

By the man, the x command, under sam(1) does execute the command after the
x. Also, we
have to use \n, instead of a real newline.

AFAICT, these two commands work, separatedly. Using the first one prints me
the whole
set of function definitions, and using the s// when selecting the line that
holds something like:

blah blah (blah blah) {

Does indeed change that for:
blah blah (blah blah)
{

But when used together, this command doesn't work. Could please someone
provide
me with some insight on why this doesn't work? Thanks a lot.

(Sorry for the blah)
