That's easily possible with regular expressions.
As macro command: Replace("\ttest([0-9])", "\ttry\1", REGEXP)
Or via menu {Search, Replace}: (without quotes!)
- Search: "\ttest([0-9])"
- Replace: "\ttry\1"
- (o) Reg-Exp
Please note: The above syntax requires at least Vedit 6.15.
Older versions use {} instead of () for grouping.
