Ok I see. Unfortunately rxrplc uses rxmatches, so it was messing me up
when I was trying to
replace just the first character:
('^B';'C') rxrplc 'BBB my sentence'
CCC my sentence

If you just want the *first* match, use *rxmatch*. Use *rxmatches* in
when
you want to keep doing *rxmatch* on the rest of the string after
finding a
match, until the end of the string.

I think this is the way that rxmatches works, it iterates by
beheading the right argument so that ^B match 3 times.
Not sure this is a bug or a feature.

I believe there should only be one match. Why are there 3?
load'regex'
'^B' rxmatches 'BBB my sentence'
0 1
