Handling parenthesis

[jeanlucthumm]

I want to search for ref.read(metrics and replace it with ref.watch(metrics

Since we're using rg for search, I have to do ref.read\(metrics to get the files.

But since we're using sed for replacing which treats escaped parens as significant, we get these errors:

sed "-i" "-E" "28,28s/ref.read\(metrics/ref.watch(metrics/gi" "[file name]"
sed: 1: "28,28s/ref.read\(metric ...": RE error: parentheses not balanced

Can you switch to using the "oxi"? It requires a build step with Rust.

Is there a non-oxi workaround? If not that's fine, feel free to close
