I don't think you could do it in one pass. It would be possible if look-behind
assertions could be of variable length, but they can't.
Find "(?<=<a href="[^"]+) +"
Replace "_"
(Both without the quotes.)
I suppose if you wanted to automate something like this and could not just
repeat a simple search & replace until no more matches were found then you
might do something like this:
Find:
(?<=<a href=)("[^"]+")
Replace:
\1=href
Find:
+(?=[^"]+"=href)
Replace:
_
Find:
(?<=")=href
Replace with nothing
