===============

![demo](https://github.com/jake-stewart/regex-vars.nvim/assets/83528263/7bde0744-f035-43e1-b82d-9d70fe8edc02)

allows defining variables which are expanded during search. for example, you

could make a `:email:` variable which you type and automatically expands to an

email regex.

it supports `incsearch` and respects your `'magic'`, `'ignorecase'`, `'smartcase'`, settings.

it also changes the functionality of typing `/` (or `?` if backwards). default

functionality is to use previous search if empty or end the search. the new behaviour

is to automatically escape these characters. if you wish to use the previous

search, you can still leave the search empty or use ``.

### setup

```lua

local rv = require("regex-vars")

rv.setup({

    [rv.escape(":foo:")] = "bar",

})

```

### usage

with the example config, `:foo:` is mapped to `bar`. you can use `/` or `?` to

search and `:foo:` in your search will be replaced with `bar`.
