it is already the syntax you want
anyway, here is your code:

function replace(str, pattern, rep) return string.gsub(str, pattern, rep) end
string.gsub also accepts magical regular expression patterns, so there's a little more to it if you only want to replace normal text:

do
local function regexEscape(str)
return str:gsub("[%(%)%.%%%+%-%*%?%[%^%$%]]", "%%%1")
end
string.replace = function (str, this, that)
return str:gsub(regexEscape(this), that:gsub("%%", "%%%%")) -- only % needs to be escaped for 'that'
end
end
The regexEscape escapes all magic characters that gsub understands (yes it's a clusterfuck of a pattern, but if you try to do it yourself, it'll make sense).
So 'this' is escaped. But 'that' also needs to be escaped, it understands "%0", "%1..."%9" as stuff to replace from the previously captured string. "%%%%" Does exactly that, transforms single "%" to "%%" so they're no longer an issue.
