grcat hangs when using replace about grc HOT 2 CLOSED

It is clear why this happens - the replacement contains comma, so the regular expression matches the line again, replaces the comma with \n,, matches again, replaces the comma again to obtain \n\n,, etc... Eventually the python interpreter would run out of memory.

This is by design, replacement does not advance the position in the line, so that any subsequent colourifying rules/matches can be applied against the new line.

In ae79db5 I have applied a change that stops replacing after the first successful replace, so it should be fixed.
