[PLUG] emacs: search-and-replace regex

[Rich Shepard]

  Yes, Russell, I did look at the very latest FSF manual for emacs 21.2, and
I didn't find the answer there -- on page 118, to be specific.

  I have a series of structures named, for example, PDB, RDB, VDB. I want to
add 'struct' to the references to them in function prototypes. According to
the emacs docs (ORA, info and FSF ps file), one can do either a search with
a regex search string or a search-and-replace with the exact text (case
insensitive or not at the user's option), but not a search-and-replace using
a regex such as .DB.

  Is there a way of doing this that I missed seeing in the docs?

Thanks,

Rich
