Thanks for your feedback! I have updated my proposal again, trying to explain everything clearer. I thought that implement regular expression parsing from scratch is not difficult, and can lead to a more uniform structure. But after some consideration, I find it not worth maintaining a database

Hi Albus, Thank you for your proposal. I am not very familiar with the project, but I see that you mention Prolog in your proposal. Are you planning on using Prolog? Do you have any ideas in how a similar algorithm could be implemented in C or C++ instead? (It would be good if a LyX user did

No. I am indeed not familiar with programming in Prolog. I mentioned it because the pattern matching feature of Prolog, (or maybe many functional languages?) is implemented that way. I think find and replace is also a kind of pattern matching, and for the replace feature, the substitution table
