How can I convert this coffeescript to js/jquery?

Question

text = child.html()
text = text.replace /(#include(\s*&lt;.*&gt;)?)/gi, '<span>$1</span>'
text = text.replace /(main\(.*\))/gi, '<span>$1</span>'
child.html text

This is an answer from my question: Wrapping strings with a span I dont know how to use coffeescript and the one who answer looks unavailable.

all you need to do is add paranthesis to function calls (html, and replace) — Logan Murphy, Aug 30 '13 at 17:45
@BarbaraLaird That site does the opposite to what is needed here... — Oleh Prypin, Aug 30 '13 at 17:46
@OlehPrypin it does both ways, to and from coffee/java script — Logan Murphy, Aug 30 '13 at 17:47
here is the fiddle...all i did was add parenthesis, (semi colon is recommended though) http://jsfiddle.net/pTZQ5/ — Logan Murphy, Aug 30 '13 at 17:49

From js2coffee.org

var text;

text = text.replace(/(#include(\s*&lt;.*&gt;)?)/gi, '<span>$1</span>');

text = text.replace(/(main\(.*\))/gi, '<span>$1</span>');

child.html(text);
