Does anyone know how I can replace all occurences of any strings that end with ".txt" (lets say "ghjkl.txt" and "xyz.txt") with their uppercase equivalents(ie. "GHJKL.txt" and "XYZ.txt"). There must be some way of doing this using regular expressions. I've looked extensively through the emacs help, but havent been able to figure it out.
(while (re-search-forward "\\W\\(\\w+\\)\\.txt\\W" nil t) (replace-match (upcase (match-string-no-properties 1)) nil nil nil 1))) --Greg
