(Spacemacs)
M-%
starts query-replace
, and when a match is found, ?
shows help, which indicates:
Type Space or ‘y’ to replace one match, Delete or ‘n’ to skip to next,
However, pressing Space
simply inserts a space rather than replacing text (y
still works). As a long time emacs user, this is a frustrating loss of functionality. Any suggestions on how it can be reinstituted?
emacs -Q
(no init file) - however that might be done with Spacemacs? If not, the bisect your init file to find the culprit.
