Feature: replace #39

Open conartist6 opened 2 years ago

We should support the JS API for replacement so that the engine can be used to modify streams on the fly.

Actually there's probably an argument to be made for designing an API from scratch, and then perhaps implementing the JS API as an overlay onto it. I think this is one of those things that can be made a bit more idiomatic in the iterable paradigm, probably by just handing control of generation of output over to another generator whose argument is the match.
