Is it possible to do such kind of replacement with regular expression (doesn’t matter what kind of regex language reference tho)?

Original:

Blabla caseInsensitiveKnownFixedWord[thisRandomWordMustRemainUntouched] more blabla

Replaced:

Blabla myNewWord(thisRandomWordMustRemainUntouched) more blabla

Shorter:

a[b] replaced with c(b)

a is known, b is random unknown single word

It would be great if it takes in mind also white spaces before and after "[" and "]"

    Sure, just replace a\[([^\]]*)\] with c(\1).

    For example, you see it working in PHP on ideone.com.
