I'm sure it would, yeah. I'm new to string manipulation in emacs, so I
was just having a hard time imagining what it would take to build the
equivalent of replace-regexp-in-string that also copied symbols, but I
can just look at the source of  replace-regexp-in-string and use
text-properties-at probably. Any way, I'll probably let the author
figure it out :) Thanks!
