Hi,
how do I replace the term `foo' with `bar' when `foo' is followed
by a conditional term? Or what do I have to pass as argument to
`M-x replace-string'?
the rule I'm trying to imply is "replace foo if it is not
followed by a dot".
INPUT
foo jfkda
foo.bar fdjak
OUTPUT
fooMYREPLACEMENT jfkda
foo.bar fdjak
TIA
Patrick
