I'm looking for a pattern to find strings of this type: XaaaaaXaaaa That is, a single capital, followed by an indeterminate number of lowercase, followed by a...
... Nevermind. I just did this: [A-Z][a-z][a-z]*[A-Z][a-z] That inserts one mandatory lowercase after the capital, then allows an indeterminate number more...
I'm creating an indented index with two levels only (main entry and subentry) for a new client. She sent me a style guide that states, "Please use styles to...
My understanding is that Cindex actually uses style sheets as the default for .rtf output. (When you import the file into Word, it appears with the subheads as...
For clients that request tabs rather than hanging indents: create the indented index as usual and when you are ready to export, use SAVE AS and select RTF as...
... Don't worry about it. When you save the index as an RTF file, Cindex assigns Word styles to each level: Main, Sub1, Sub2, etc. That's all your client ...
Thanks to Carolyn, Kathy and Dick for enlightening me about styles and tabs. I can proceed with confidence. :-) Nora -- Harris Indexing Service 83 Arnold...
In the data entry box, I wish I could tab to one or more specific characters, most commonly a comma. I would want the ability to set a default (probably the...
I'm working on a project where I've ended up with a number of entries with the same page number both bolded and plain text. These show up twice in full-format...
In WinCin 1.5.6, I'm in the middle of an index and select a subset to edit. When I finish the edit, I'm returned to the top of the file instead of to the point...
Dick, I don't know of anything that will directly do what you want, but I have found an indirect way around it. Before you leave to go edit your subset, use...
... Thanks, but that's not appreciably more efficient than what I do now: remember where I left and start typing the primary to get back there. Dick...
... I'm with you, Scott. My problem is usually remembering where I was. I've been trying your method. The other method I use is to drag and drop an entry onto...

... The problem is, this isn't something I just do a couple of times. I'm editing an index of 6k records. I'm going to do this dozens, if not hundreds, of...
I'm preparing a formal proposal for Frances regarding improvements to th WinCin macro feature. It would be a big help if you would answer the following: 1. Do...
... No ... Not enough capability ... Yes ... QuicKeys ... Multi-level macros -- that is, have the macro take some action(s), pause for user input; continue...
... Yeah, I understand that this doesn't fix your problem (it helps with mine), and that being able automagically to return to the record you left would be a...

... No. ... Way too cumbersome, both in recording macros and executing them. ... Yes. ... QuickKeys ... 1. Most important: I want the one-touch-record...
... Yes, I've asked for a "bookmark" feature. Something quick and readily accessible that simply says "Set a bookmark here" then an equally quick way to "go to...
... Thank you. I knew there was a single word for that, but I couldn't think of it. That would be a terrific feature, one I'd definitely use. Cheers, Carol ...

... A lot of people contributed to a wish list a year or so ago. Does any one know if it was ever sent to Frances? And yes, I would really like to have a...
... I don't know if she has a full list. I've kept all these messages and was thinking of sending them at whatever point that it appeared a new program was...
How do we know Cindex isn't being worked on for sure? I think sending this list now along with Dick's compilation of who uses macros would be a good thing....

... Nevertheless, it's best to be on record for whenever decvelopment does start. One would hope that the first step would be to analyze user requests. That's...
This a good item for the wishlist, too, if it hasn't already been mentioned. The place where I run into it in the find/replace dialog box. Especially if you've...
This is a little embarrassing (since I should be using them more): 1. Do you use the native Cindex macro feature? NO -- but I use the Windows version. Mac...
