Using VSCode find/replace, how would I find all strings within a file conforming to the following, and replace all dashes in some-text-that-looks-like-this with underscores?
text: some-text-that-looks-like-this
{text: some-text-that-looks-like-this}
text: some-text-that-looks-like-this, some other text....
All strings of "some-text-that-looks-like-this" start with "some-text".
I do some regex and I can find all instances of some-text-that-looks-like-this, i.e.
(some-text-.*)b
But have no clue how to replace '-' with '_' at running time.

After that, do CtrlShiftP -> Select All Occurences of Find Match to select all matching words.
Then click Find in Selection button (the button with three horizontal lines in the “find” popup).
Then just type - in “find” and _ in “replace”, and click Replace All.
