Thank John Maddock ;-) In fact, I think we can easily put together some working version of this for 1.4.x. (possibly with a checkbox disabling replace and backward(*) search for regex searches). The only undefined corners are: what to do with selections ending in different levels (possibly eat the insets in the selection. Maybe in the future LyX will support this type of selections...), and what syntax to use for searching insets types etc... In any case, I personally want to focus in helping with core changes/regression fixing for the moment. (*) even if it's not directly supported in the boost library, I think it's not that hard, it would suffice to revert the regex expression, and revert the iterators... Regards, Alfredo
