 Sorry for the delay, Alvaro. I wasn't sure I understood, but now I've
made it work.
 The trick is I have to call replace within a math formula, and then it
will replace inside every formula, but it doesn't find the expression if
I call it with the cursor in a non-math area.
 So thanks, it did help!
