Emacs：跳回上一个查询替换位置

Question

I do this a lot: [M-%] to query-replace , then hit [y] a few times, then I'm past the area where I'm changing things so I hit [q] to be done.

Then I'd like to get the cursor back to where I was, so here's where it gets awkward. I [C-_] to undo the last replace, then move the cursor on character, then undo again to redo the last replace. Now the cursor's up where I've been editing, but there has to be a better way.

(I'm happy to get back to either where I started the replace, or where the last replace happened.)

Answer 1

Cu C-SPC jumps to the mark (which was automatically set as Blrfl pointed out), and then pops the previous mark off the local mark ring (so you can repeat the process to move to previous marks).

I think this is preferable to exchange-point-and-mark , as the latter reactivates the mark, highlighting the region in transient-mark-mode, which you wouldn't want in this case. (Unless you wanted to jump back and forth between the point you started at and the location of the final replacement, in which case exchange-point-and-mark would be exactly what you wanted.)

Answer 2

After you quit, the mark will be where you started and the point will be where you stopped. Cx Cx will swap the two, putting the point where you started.
