NAME

       mtext_search - Locate an M-text in a specific range of another.

SYNOPSIS

       int mtext_search (MText * mt1, int from, int to, MText * mt2)

DESCRIPTION

       the first occurrence of M-text mt2 in M-text mt1 in the region from and to while ignoring
       difference of the text properties. If from is less than to, the forward search starts from
       from, otherwise the backward search starts from to.

RETURN VALUE

           If mt2 is found in mt1, mtext_search() returns the position of the first occurrence.
           Otherwise it returns -1. If mt2 is empty, it returns 0.
