  Support regex substitution command · Issue #2 ...

  https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/issues/2232

  I am a heavy user off substitutions in vim, helix does not substitutions built in, rather it leans on multicursor support.

  to replace every instance of hello with world in vim

  
  
  
  
  
          
  :%s/hello/world/g<CR>
  
  
  

  and in helix you would

  
  
  
  
  
          
  %shello<CR>cworld<ESC>,
