I am trying to edit my contents page such that each file gets mapped as a link
I am unable to crack the replacement pattern. Experimenting with below
Is there any way to use integers from Find part of the expression in replacement part as a variable such that I can use them multiple times during the replacement. Any suggestion will be great.

They're called 'back references', which led me to this. Seems $1 might be what you're looking for.
