<P>The algorithm regex_replace&nbsp;searches&nbsp;through&nbsp;a string finding
all the matches to the regular expression: for each match it then calls <A href="match_results.html#format">
match_results::format</A> to format the string and sends the result to the
output iterator. Sections of text that do not match are copied to the output
unchanged only if the <EM>flags</EM> parameter does not have the flag <A href="match_flag_type.html">
format_no_copy</A> set. If the flag <A href="match_flag_type.html">format_first_only</A>
is set then only the first occurrence is replaced rather than all
occurrences.&nbsp;<PRE>template &lt;class OutputIterator, class BidirectionalIterator, class traits,
