These are some regular expressions I use for formatting purposes:
| Pattern | Replace by | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
^(?:\+|-|\x{2212})?(?:(?:\d{1,3}?(?:\,\d{3})*|\d+)\.?\d*|\d*\.?\d+)(?:[Ee][+-]?\d+)?$
|
N/A | Match a number |
(=+)\s*(.*?[^\s=]*)\s*(=+)(?=\n)or (\=+)\s*(.*?[^\s\=])\s*(\=+)(?=\n)
|
$1 $2 $3
|
Space out equals signs for section headers* |
(?<=\n)(\||!)[^\S\r\n]*\|?[^\S\r\n]*(?!-|\}|\+)
|
$1
|
Space out pipe characters and header separators in tables (one cell per line) and replace ! | and | | with ! and | , respectively
|
(\d+[Ll])\s*(\d+[Ss])
|
$1 $2

Make sure xL ys notation for MOS scales are non-wrapped |
(?<=(?:colspan|rowspan|id|style)="?.*?"?)\s*((?:\||!){1,3})\s*
|

<math>,*\s*\\frac(\d)(\d),*\s*<\/math>

Standalone fractions with single-digit numerators and denominators can be done using {{frac}} or {{sfrac}} and don't need to be TeXified
