How to make meow-query-replace and meow-query-replace-regexp use the selection at point (or match) as their argument

[Kenneth-Mata]

Let's say i want to change all instances of use-package using meow, so i press meow-mark-symbol, which highlights all instances of "use-package" across the buffer, then i do meow-query-replace but now i have to type "meow-mark-symbol" if that's what i want to change, furthermore, it will only replace that single instance if i don't have the whole buffer selected

Any example to demonstrate the way you want it to be?

meow-mark-search.mp4

I hope this explains what i mean, with isearch i can call a query-replace on the search subject and travel through matches either applying the change or not, with meow-mark (or meow-visit) when i call meow-query-replace it doesn't pick up the subject and even if i say, yank it, it doesn't travel to the others

apparently the particular command is called isearch-query-replace

I see.

You can select with meow-mark-symbol, update it with meow-change, typing, ESC.
When you exit from the insert state, the whole symbol should be marked automatically.

Then you do meow-save, meow-search, meow-replace, then repeat search and replace.

That works perfectly, and it wraps around the file too, thank you.

You can also mark-page, meow-visit on use-package, meow-change, type and ESC. This is helix workflow.
