@st_albert: I'm not actually known for a surfeit of patience. Being one of the naggers who asked for PCRE, I'm trying, I really am, to be patient. But the Dodo thing is rather vexing.
@mmat1: Well, "replace all" would sucketh in the circumstances I'm looking at...I'll either have to regex it, to avoid instances in which an alpha comes after, (which now scares the big-girl panties right off of me), or do it manually, which is starting to make me cranky. (Those who know me would tell you that they can't notice a difference in the level of cranky, so it mayn't matter).
And, thanks, Toxaris. ;-)
And, while we're at it, if we're adding WP-like stuff, why not do something REALLY bloody useful for an ePUB, and add a Concordancer? I mean, seriously....as a pro, we get a bajillion books in here that have indices. I can't convince the authors to abandon the indices, naturally, no matter how many times I explain about "search." We are therefore left with either a solution in which the previously-linked (top-of-page) links no longer "find" the referenced word (naturally), or we have to do a concordance-like index by hand. Given the nature of ebooks, a concordance-like index would actually make sense (giving the publisher the choice of which to leave in and which to omit), if you could auto-build the links while you were at it, across Sigil.
Just a thought. Whilst I'm being cranky...
