Vi and sed editors and take the following text:
last-name, first-name initial
and execute
s/\([^,]\), \(.*\)/\2 \1/
and end up with
first-name initial last-name
Is there a way to do this in MicroEMACS or EMACS.
GNU replies not needed. This is something I do
on a PC also. I thought MAGIC mode handle regular-
expressions, but these don't seem to work.
Hep me, Hep me! *<:)
