Is there any way to mangle an ascii file to tell LyX that the three periods it finds in the imported text should be treated as ldots?
The best I've come up with is a post-importation treatment, binding the following to a key: "command-sequence word-find-forward ...; cut; dots-insert" and then repeatedly hitting that key on the imported text. If I could hack the ascii beforehand with sed, it'd be a lot easier. I haven't found a way to enter the ldots (bound to M-period on my keyboard) into the Search/Find/Replace popup. If I could, then at least I could use its Replace-All button to do the job simply. Is there a way to do a "Replace-All" equivalent in a command sequence? Any other suggestions to simplify the process? I'm using LyX 1.3.2, Qt. TIA, Jim
