How does one replace a string with a null-string using
uEmacs 3.7i?

I do the following (which works but seems very indirect):

{ESC}R<string>{ESC}{CTRL-Q}{SP}{BSP}{ESC}

Is there a more direct way?

ps. Thanks to James and the other netters who have posted some
very high quality stuff.

the following has always worked for me,

{ESC}R<string>{ESC}{ESC}
