The Replace target uses regular expressions to substitute parts of an identifier with another string. It is similar to the s/// command known from sed(1) and Perl. This plugin is using the extended POSIX flavor of regular expressions, see regex(7).
Please note that backslashes need to be escaped in the configuration.
<Target "replace">
# Replace "example.net" with "example.com"
Host "\\<example.net\\>" "example.com"
# Strip "www." from hostnames
