in order to find the words in this paragraph, you need to also add an enumerate

Note that e.g.

Now you can try the regular expression based searching facility.
|

|
|
Users may arbitrarily insert, within text or math material, regexp-mode
|

|
|
insets that allow to enter regular subexpressions.
|
||
|
|
This is done either through
|
||
|
|
\noun on
|
||
|
|
[Insert]->[Regexp]
|
||
|
|
\noun default
|
||
|

or by typing [C-S-r].

\begin_layout Standard
|

but under the constraint that any subexpression must match a well-formed
|
||
|
|
LyX text segment, i.e.
|
||
|
|
when matching LaTeX code, no segments with unbalanced {} braces are allowed
|
||
|
|
to match subexpressions entered by the user.
|
||
|
|
\end_layout
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\end_inset
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
, while text entered outside regexp insets is matched exactly against the
|
||
|
|
same text in the document.
|
||
|
|
Note that it is allowed to cut and paste regexp-mode insets as usual.
|
||
|
|
In order to try the feature, first leave the ignore format option checked.
|

|
|
\end_layout
|

|
|
|

\begin_layout Enumerate

|
\begin_inset Formula $\frac{\regexp{.*}}{mn}$
|

|

\end_inset
|

|

See how all fractions with the specified denominator are found.
|

\end_layout
|

\begin_layout Enumerate

Now uncheck the Ignore Format option and search for '

|

See how, respectively, all boldface and all emphasized text is found.
|
||
|
|
\end_layout
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\begin_layout Enumerate
|

Search for a plain '.*' giving it a Section style, and navigate across section

\end_layout

You can use references to subexpressions as usual, enclosing parts of the

regex expression within round braces '()', and referring back to them through

\backslash

1,
|

\backslash

2, etc...
|
||
|
|
(within either the same or another regexp-mode inset, where a '
|
||
|
|
\backslash
|
||
|
|
' symbol is entered by pressing twice the '
|
||
|
|
\backslash
|
||
|
|
' key).
|
||
|
|
For example, try searching for '
|
||
|
|
\begin_inset Formula \regexp{[\^a-z]([a-z]+)}

\end_inset
|

\begin_inset Formula \regexp{\backslash1}

This feature seems very useful to me.
|
||
|
|
Hope others will find it useful as well.
|
||
|
|
Currently, I'm not really happy with the implementation, because it has
|
||
|
|
at least quadratic complexity (document size multiplied by maximum paragraph
|
||
|
|
size, plus regexp matching complexity, if enabled, and infact it is quite
|
||
|
|
slow), but hopefully that will be fixable by changing the TeXOnePar() function
|
||
|
|
and simpleTeXOnePar() method, and possibly other TeX related methods.

Infact, a DocIterator could be used to keep track of the current position,
|
||
|
|
and an externally supplied functor could be called at each position providing
|
||
|
|
the DocIterator and LaTeX string translated so far to the external code.
|
||
|
|
This would allow to couple each DocIterator state with the position in
|
||
|
|
the output LaTeX string, allowing to recover the DocIterator positions
|
||
|
|
after a regexp-based find operation made (only once this time) on translated
|

LaTeX.
