regex edit in skype?

Ok, I am not a big skype user, but I was chatting with my sister, made a typo and habitually typed

tpyo
s/tpyo/typo/

to my surprise it actually changed the history. I am using the linux skype client 2.1.0.47-r1 and my sister is using 4.something on windows.

When she tried to do the same thing, it didn't work. Does anyone know if this is specific to the linux version?

Coolest easter egg/feature I have ever stumbled upon.

Solution 1:

The regexp feature does not work on Windows. It works on the Linux and Mac version though. It's a pretty neat feature, you can also hold Control-click (Mac) and select Edit from the context menu on a message to edit it.
