================================================================
Dear Bug Team!

I'm having a problem with replace-regexp
    I need to pick up the matched regular expression and insert it in
the
output  \1 is not working for me.

    Maybe I am doing something wrong?
I cant google anything on the subject, I'v tried combinations of \&1
etc to no avail.

Google? What's wrong with C-h f replace-regexp?

   In TO-STRING, `\&' stands for whatever matched the whole of REGEXP,
   and `\N' (where N is a digit) stands for
   whatever what matched the Nth `\(...\)' in REGEXP.
