Subject: Regex to find long sentences in LaTeX
Date: Thu, 22 May 2008 17:17:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <873aoa9uug.wl%j.burton@brighton.ac.uk> (raw)
Hi, can someone show me a regex to find sentences in LaTeX docs with more than a
certain number of words? I want to find all sentences with > 30
words (I have a weakness for writing waffling sentences :-))
I started to get something going in re-builder but it needs to allow
LaTeX escape chars \{}[] (are there more?) within sentences as well as
normal punctuation.
Or maybe a regex isn't the best thing for this?
Thanks very much,
Jim
