I'd like to find numbers in a string in a text cast member ("name and
formula text") and make them subscripts. For example, I'd like to make
the 2 and 5 in "The formula N2O5 represents the compound named
dinitrogen pentoxide." subscripts. It's less important but I'd also like
to be able to make both 2's in "The formula H2O2 represents the compound
named hydrogen peroxide." subscripts. I'd like to be able to do this in
a general way for all numbers between 1 and 9, checking for each number
in any string, and if it is found making it a subscript.
Any ideas on how I can make this happen?
Thanks for the help.
