This package includes Emacs minor modes (iedit-mode and
iedit-rectangle-mode) based on an API library (iedit-lib) and allows you
to alter one occurrence of some text in a buffer (possibly narrowed) or
region, and simultaneously have other occurrences changed in the same
way, with visual feedback as you type.
iedit-mode is a great alternative to built-in replace commands:
- A more intuitive way to alter all the occurrences at once
- Visual feedback
- Fewer keystrokes in most cases
- Optionally preserve case
