Re: Changing into greek glyphs in texinfo-mode

[pietru@caramail.com]

I want to make the glyph substitution when next character is any of 
" ", "-", "+", "\", ",", ":", ";", ".", "_", "^".

This targets every \something construct on its own or followed by
another one:

"\\\\\\<[a-z]+\\>\\([\s+\,:;._^-]\\\\\\<[a-z]+\\>\\)?"

This matches \alpha and \alpha followed by another construct like
\alpha-\thing:

"\\\\\\<alpha+\\>\\([\s+\,:;._^-]\\\\\\<[a-z]+\\>\\)?"

But I need help on to do the actual substitution.
