Yes, it does indeed. Nice trick! I think sometimes I just tried to search for the label text without inserting the label macro and it didn't worked. 
Search and replace is quite powerful in the detached window. You can also use pattern variables, there is some mention about it in the manual, I do not remember how does it works, however.

Hi Basile
this trick tops everything, it solves all my problems.
I see that a modification of the same trick allows to replace stuff. E.g. I can replace \ref{a} by \ref{b} etc.
Great trick!

Hi Slava,

I think both your questions can be solved by using the detached search window, which turns out to be powerful than the default search textfield appearing at the bottom of the TeXmacs window. The detached search window is available by using the standard Edit > Search… menu item, and then by clicking on the second icon to the right of the search field, depicting a popping window.

To search for a label, initiate the search while your cursor is within an equation as this (silently) sets the search to be in math mode. To search for a reference, initiate the search while your cursor is within standard text.

In the detached search window, type \ R E F <enter> or \ L A B E L <enter> followed by your citation keys. Ignore any warning reporting references not found which may show up.

I learnt this from Joris, this should really appear in the manual.

Thanks for these answers, these are nice tricks.

I have another related question: how can I look for all places which refer to an equation with a given label?
In latex I would just search for `\eqref{label}'. Is there a TexMacs analogue?

Thanks again, Slava Rychkov

That's a nice observation, and probably is the way is implemented (should check), but anyway the interface to jump to an "immediate URL" is not there to my knowledge, so one still has to write some code to allow it from the GUI.

Hi,

I don't know whether it is possible to go to a URL in TeXmacs.

If that is supported, then going to label is a special case: #labelname

Going to URL seems more conceptual.

Best,
Frank

No, there is no way I know. But this trick is quite simple. There
should be a way to come up with a macro which do the same job, i.e.
open a window and ask a label and then moves to the label place. Maybe
this could be a good exercise if somebody what to give a try.

It's not very practical, but you can insert a reference where you are
and click on it, and delete the reference afterwards.
I don't know if there is a better way.
