Using the Emacs query-replace-regexp function (C-M-%), is it possible to
specify a newline in the substitution string?
I have several lines of text containing a comma-separated list of strings:
foo, bar, baz, [...]
which I want to break into a list with one string per line with some
additional text in prefixing each string:
<LE>foo
<LE>bar
<LE>baz
...
I tried specifying ", ." (without the quotes) as the search string and
"\013<LE>", "\n<LE>", and "^<LE>" as the replacement strings. The first two
fail with an "invalid use of \" error; the third insert the character "^"
rather than a newline.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks.
Jerry
