Re: need help with a defun

[Joakim Hove]

Hello,

as another poster already commented; it virtually impossible to
provide any useful help without some examples of text you want to
process. 

It seeems to me that a construction like:

   (while (re-search-forward "your-regexp" (point-max) 't)
       ;;
       ;; do something - the function (match-string ) might be handy
       ;;
   )  

would be useful. In addition it might be easier to use a temporary
buffer?
