[5751#8] How to factorise show rules for some text?

[SalomonCHUNG]

Hello,

I am writing my first Typst document. And here is what I have in my main.typ:

[...]
#let cas_limite_font = "Linux Biolinum O"
#show "impossible de gagner": set text(font: cas_limite_font)
#show "déjà gagné": set text(font: cas_limite_font)
[...]

The document then compiles to (excerpt):

How can I “factorise” set text(...) for a specific list of texts ?

• Is there a kind of a match?
• Shall I use a regex?

   #show regex("impossible de gagner|déjà gagné"): set text(font: "Linux Biolinum O")
  

Best regards,

There is a general and two more specific ways to do this: using a loop or equivalent to generate and apply multiple show rules using regular expressions with alternatives (|) using selector.or() since the specific ways cover the most common use cases and are also better performance-wise, let’s start with these: Regular expressions The first two cas…

Using that post as a guide, something like this should work for your case:

#let words = ("ipsum", "sit")
#show regex(words.join("|")): set text(red)//Change font here
