Re: Interative batch query-replace question

[Ke Lu]

My task is:
1. Use find-dired to Find all java file in a fold.
2. Mark all file in "*Find*" buffer
3. call batch-query-replace-regexp.
(I must do it, because I have about 50 pattern to query-replace-regexp
and I must do it in interative way to confirm if it is right)

>>  (defun batch-query-replace-regexp()
>>    (interactive)
>>      (switch-to-buffer "*Find*")
>>      (dired-do-query-replace-regexp "jp\\.co" "jp.co2")
>> ->can't reach here     (switch-to-buffer "*Find*")
>>       (dired-do-query-replace-regexp "java" "java2")
...a lot of pattern to query-replace-regexp
