Advanced search and replace question


  • Subject: Advanced search and replace question
  • From: Alex Zavatone <email@hidden>

I've had the pleasure of inheriting an iOS project where the previous programmers took little to no care in formatting with respect to white spaces between almost anything.

Readability is quite lacking and while I walk through the multiple view controllers all mashed into one .m file, one of the things I'm doing is making the code legible.

With that in mind, I'm hoping that there is a way to specify a search for =, ==, != and * if there the leading and/or trailing characters are not spaces.

I'm expecting that this will involve regular expressions to find an alphanumeric char, an = char and another  alphanumeric char, then replace with the string of " = ".

Is this the right way to go about this?

Thanks in advance.

Oh, and to whomever implemented Edit All in Scope, you're on my Christmas list.

Cheers,
Alex Zavatone
