Lyx 1.1.6 fix4 Mandrake 8.1 I imported a long article (LaTeX) that is in AMS class, and then performed the search for in, in_, in_a, etc... It finds everything and there is no deletion. I even tried the space alone...
Now this is what I call complexity and unpredictability! No wonder people try to model business processes by processes of computing!
