Dear Mr. Kremer,
first of all I like to thank you for all your work you have done on dired-mode!
I have a problem when using %R (dired-do-rename-regexp). I like to use a kind
of computed replacement string (with a Lisp expression), like it is possible
with the normal replace-regexp command. This seems to be not possible, or do I
make an error in masking the replacement string?
E.g.: when I specify the strings
Rename from (regexp): \([0-9][0-0]\) \(.+\)
Rename \([0-9][0-0]\) \(.+\) to: \,(+ \#1 3) \2
I get the message
"Invalid use of '\' in replacement text"
I'd appreciate your help. Is this my fault or are there plans to implement this
into dired mode? I know that there is a workaround with wdired, but really
would like to see it in dired itself.
Kind regards,
Ado Arnolds
