24 ;;; Commentary:
26 ;; This module allows you to systematically replace text in incoming
27 ;; messages. Load erc-replace, and customize `erc-replace-alist'.
28 ;; Then add to your init file:
30 ;; (require 'erc-replace)
31 ;; (erc-replace-mode 1)
33 ;;; Code:
35 (require 'erc)
37 (defgroup erc-replace nil
38 "Replace text from incoming messages"
39 :group 'erc)
41 (defcustom erc-replace-alist nil
42 "Alist describing text to be replaced in incoming messages.
43 This is useful for filters.
45 The alist has elements of the form (FROM . TO). FROM can be a regular
46 expression or a variable, or any sexp, TO can be a string or a
47 function to call, or any sexp. If a function, it will be called with
48 one argument, the string to be replaced, and it should return a
49 replacement string."
