If i try this regexp

(cl-ppcre:regex-replace-all " d {1-3}'" "la presa d 'aria" " d'"
:preserve-case t)

I don't get the expected replacement (remove the space before the
apostrophe)

"la presa d'aria"

whereas Regex Coach works as expected.

Thanks.

Mario

The correct syntax is {1,3}, not {1-3}.
