Hi all I know there is a flip flop option but I'm not sure thats what I need.. Here is what I want to do - and I have no idea how to do this.
Basically I have a section of text that I am doing a search and replace operation. The problem is what if the search text doesn't exist - I still want to add it. So the logic is if it exists in the region replace it, if you can't find it add to to it if (/start/ .. /end/){ s/^foo/bar/; } now what if foo didn't exist - bar still should be set!
