I'm sure this is child's play for seasoned programmers, but today I found out how to use regular expressions to put square brackets around all my numbered bullet points - e.g., 1. to [1] - though this was in sublime text using the find and replace feature so it's not like in commandline.

I'm sure you can get some chatbot to do this for you, but the amount of typing you've got to do to get it to do what you want is far more than using regex...plus regex won't require anywhere near the computing power that chatbots do...

@drmambobob And it will either work (if you get it right) or it won't — no weird in-between sort-of working.

@mike Yes - absolutely! Chatbots seem incapable of returning errors.
