yuuji@20 123 YaTeX automates typesetting and previewing of LaTeX and enables
yuuji@20 124 completing input of LaTeX mark-up command such as
yuuji@20 125 @code{\begin@{@}}..@code{\end@{@}}.
yuuji@20 126
yuuji@20 127 YaTeX also supports Demacs which runs on MS-DOS(386), Mule (Multi

yuuji@58 233 Typing @kbd{[prefix] t j}, the current editing window will be divided
yuuji@58 234 horizontally when you invoke latex command, and log message of La@TeX{}
yuuji@58 235 typesetting will be displayed in the other window; called typesetting
yuuji@58 236 buffer. The typesetting buffer automatically scrolls up and traces
yuuji@58 237 La@TeX{} warnings and error messages. If you see latex stopping by an
yuuji@20 238 error, you can send string to latex in the typesetting buffer.
yuuji@20 239
yuuji@20 240 If an error stops the La@TeX{} typesetting, this key stroke will
yuuji@20 241 move the cursor to the line where La@TeX{} error is detected.

yuuji@20 250 If you find a noticeable error, move to the typesetting buffer and move
yuuji@20 251 the cursor on the line of error message and type @kbd{SPACE} key. This
yuuji@20 252 makes the cursor move to corresponding source line.
yuuji@20 253
yuuji@20 254 Since @kbd{[prefix] tr} pastes the region into the file
yuuji@20 255 @file{texput.tex} in the current directory, you should be careful of
yuuji@20 256 overwriting. The method of specification of the region is shown in the
yuuji@68 257 section @xref{%#notation}.
yuuji@20 258
yuuji@20 259 The documentstyle for typeset-region is the same as that of editing
yuuji@20 260 file if you edit one file, and is the same as main file's if you
yuuji@20 261 edit splitting files.

yuuji@51 318 And if you split the source text and
yuuji@20 319 edit subfile that should be included from main text.
yuuji@20 320
yuuji@20 321 @example
yuuji@46 322 %#!latex main.tex
yuuji@20 323 @end example
yuuji@20 324
yuuji@20 325 @noindent
yuuji@20 326 will be helpful to execute latex on main file from sub text buffer. Since
yuuji@20 327 this command line after @kbd{%#!} will be sent to shell literally, next
yuuji@20 328 description makes it convenient to use ghostview as dvi-previewer.
yuuji@20 329
yuuji@20 330 @example
yuuji@46 331 %#!latex main ; dvi2ps main.dvi > main
yuuji@20 332 @end example
yuuji@20 333
yuuji@20 334 @noindent
yuuji@20 335 Note that YaTeX assumes the component before the last period of
yuuji@20 336 the last word in this line as base name of the main La@TeX{} source.
yuuji@20 337
yuuji@51 338 To make best use of the feature of inter-file jumping by
yuuji@51 339 @kbd{[prefix] g} (see @ref{Cursor jump}), take described below into
yuuji@51 340 consideration.

yuuji@20 343 @item You can put split texts in sub directory, but not in

yuuji@20 346 such as \include{chap1/sub}, when you include the file in
yuuji@20 347 a sub-directory.
yuuji@20 348 @item In a sub-text, write @code{%#!latex main.tex} even if @file{main.tex}
yuuji@20 349 is in the parent directory(not %#!latex ../main.tex).

yuuji@20 357
yuuji@20 358 Typeset-region by @kbd{[prefix] tr} passes the region between point and
yuuji@20 359 mark to typesetting command by default. But when you want to typeset
yuuji@20 360 static region, enclose the region by @code{%#BEGIN} and @code{%#END} as
yuuji@20 361 follows.
yuuji@20 362

yuuji@46 366 %#END
yuuji@20 367 @end example
yuuji@20 368
yuuji@20 369 This is the rule of deciding the region.
yuuji@20 370
yuuji@20 371 @enumerate
yuuji@20 372 @item
yuuji@20 373 If there exists %#BEGIN before point,

yuuji@20 380 @end itemize
yuuji@20 381

yuuji@20 393 @end itemize
yuuji@20 394 @end enumerate
yuuji@20 395
yuuji@20 396 It is useful to write @code{%#BEGIN} in the previous line of \begin and
yuuji@20 397 @code{%#END} in the next line of \@code{end} when you try complex
yuuji@20 398 environment such as `tabular' many times. It is also useful to put only
yuuji@20 399 @code{%#BEGIN} alone at the middle of very long text. Do not forget to
yuuji@20 400 erase @code{%#BEGIN} @code{%#END} pair.

yuuji@20 639
yuuji@20 640 @example
yuuji@46 641 (C-v for view) \???@{@} (default section): vspace*
yuuji@46 642 \vspace*@{???@}:

yuuji@20 651 @noindent
yuuji@20 652 and move the cursor in the braces.
yuuji@20 653
yuuji@20 654 In La@TeX{} command, there are commands which take more than one
yuuji@20 655 arguments such as @code{\addtolength{\topmargin}{8mm}}. To complete these
yuuji@20 656 commands, invoke section-type completion with universal argument as,
yuuji@20 657 @cindex number of argument
yuuji@20 658
yuuji@20 659 @example
yuuji@49 660 C-u 2 [prefix] s (or ESC 2 [prefix] s)
yuuji@20 661 @end example
yuuji@20 662
yuuji@20 663 @noindent
yuuji@20 664 and make answers in minibuffer like this.
yuuji@20 665
yuuji@20 666 @example
yuuji@46 667 (C-v for view) \???@{@} (default vspace*): addtolength
yuuji@46 668 \addtolength@{???@}: \topmargin
yuuji@46 669 Argument 2: 8mm
yuuji@20 670 @end example
yuuji@20 671
yuuji@20 672 @code{\addtolength} and the first argument @code{\topmargin} can be typed
yuuji@20 673 easily by completing read. Since YaTeX also learns the number of
yuuji@20 674 arguments of section-type command and will ask that many arguments in
yuuji@20 675 future completion, you had better tell the number of arguments to YaTeX at
yuuji@20 676 the first completion of the new word. But you can change the number of
yuuji@20 677 arguments by calling the completion with different universal argument
yuuji@20 678 again.
yuuji@20 679
yuuji@20 680
yuuji@20 681 Invoking section-type completion with @code{[Prefix] S} (Capital `S')
yuuji@20 682 includes the region as the first argument of section-type command.
yuuji@20 683
yuuji@20 684 The section/large/maketitle type completion can work at the
yuuji@20 685 prompt for the argument of other section-type completion.
yuuji@20 686 Nested La@TeX{} commands are efficiently read with the recursive
yuuji@20 687 completion by typing YaTeX's completion key sequence in the
yuuji@20 688 minibuffer.

yuuji@20 870 Arrow marks, sigma mark and those signs mainly used in the
yuuji@20 871 TeX's math environment are completed by key sequences which
yuuji@20 872 imitate the corresponding symbols graphically. This completion
yuuji@20 873 only works in the math environment. YaTeX automatically detects
yuuji@20 874 whether the cursor located in math environment or not, and
yuuji@52 875 change the behavior of key strokes @kbd{;} and @kbd{:}.
yuuji@20 876
yuuji@20 877 By the way, we often express the leftarrow mark by `<-' for example.
yuuji@20 878 Considering such image, you can write @code{\leftarrow} by typing @kbd{<-}
yuuji@20 879 after @kbd{;} (semicolon) as a prefix. In the same way,
yuuji@20 880 @code{\longleftarrow} (@code{<--}) is completed by typing @kbd{;<--},
yuuji@20 881 infinity mark which is imitated by @code{oo} is completed by typing
yuuji@20 882 @kbd{;oo}.
yuuji@20 883
yuuji@20 884 Here are the sample operations in YaTeX math-mode.
yuuji@20 885
yuuji@20 886 @example
yuuji@20 887 INPUT Completed La@TeX{} commands
yuuji@20 888 ; < - @code{\leftarrow}
yuuji@20 889 ; < - - @code{\longleftarrow}
yuuji@20 890 ; < - - > @code{\longleftrightarrow}
yuuji@20 891 ; o @code{\circ}
yuuji@20 892 ; o o @code{\infty}
yuuji@20 893 @end example
yuuji@20 894
yuuji@20 895 In any case, you can quit from image completion and can move
yuuji@20 896 to the next editing operation if the La@TeX{} command you want is
yuuji@20 897 shown in the buffer.
yuuji@20 898
yuuji@20 899 @code{;} itself in math-environment is inserted by @kbd{;;}. Typing
yuuji@20 900 @kbd{TAB} in the midst of image completion shows all of the La@TeX{}
yuuji@20 901 commands that start with the same name as string you previously typed in.
yuuji@20 902 In this menu buffer, press @kbd{RET} after moving the cursor (by @kbd{n},
yuuji@20 903 @kbd{p}, @kbd{b}, @kbd{f}) to insert the La@TeX{} command.
yuuji@20 904
yuuji@20 905 To know all of the completion table, type @kbd{TAB} just after @kbd{;}.
yuuji@20 906 And here is the sample menu by @kbd{TAB} after @kbd{;<}.
yuuji@20 907
yuuji@20 908 @example
yuuji@20 909 KEY LaTeX sequence sign
yuuji@20 910 < \leq <
yuuji@20 911 ~

yuuji@20 914 <= \Leftarrow <=
yuuji@20 915 @end example
yuuji@20 916
yuuji@20 917 You can define your favorite key-vs-sequence completion table in the
yuuji@20 918 Emacs-Lisp variable @code{YaTeX-math-sign-alist-private}. See also

yuuji@20 1237
yuuji@49 1238 Note that when killing @code{\begin, \end} or @code{%#BEGIN, %#END} pair,
yuuji@49 1239 the lines @code{\begin, \end} or @code{%#BEGIN, %#END} exist will be
yuuji@49 1240 killed entirely. So take care not to create any line that contains more

yuuji@20 1243 While all operations above are to kill `containers' which surround some
yuuji@20 1244 text, universal argument (@kbd{C-u}) for these commands kills not only
yuuji@20 1245 `containers' but also `contents' of them. See below as a sample.

yuuji@20 1274 on that item.
yuuji@20 1275
yuuji@20 1276 YaTeX uses the value of the variable @code{YaTeX-item-regexp} as the
yuuji@20 1277 regular expression to search item header in itemize environment.
yuuji@51 1278 If you make a newcommand to itemize terms(e.g. @code{\underlineitem}), put
yuuji@20 1279
yuuji@20 1280 @lisp
yuuji@46 1281 (setq YaTeX-item-regexp
yuuji@58 1282 "\\(\\\\\\(sub\\)*item\\)\\|\\(\\\\underlineitem\\)")
yuuji@20 1283 @end lisp
yuuji@20 1284 @cindex YaTeX-item-regexp
yuuji@20 1285
yuuji@20 1286 in your @file{~/.emacs}. If you are not familiar with regular expression
yuuji@20 1287 for Emacs-Lisp, name a newcommand for `itemize' beginning with
yuuji@20 1288 @code{\item} such as @code{\itembf}, not @code{\bfitem}.
yuuji@20 1289
yuuji@58 1290 This function reformats the @code{\item} into `hang-indented' style.
yuuji@58 1291 For example:
yuuji@51 1292
yuuji@51 1293 @example
yuuji@58 1294 itemize, enumerate environment:
yuuji@51 1295 >
yuuji@51 1296 >\item[foo] `foo' is the typical word for describing an
yuuji@51 1297 > arbitrarily written....
yuuji@58 1298 description environment:
yuuji@58 1299 > \item[bar] When the word `for' is used as an arbitrarily
yuuji@58 1300 > word, `bar' is bound to follow it.
yuuji@51 1301 @end example
yuuji@51 1302
yuuji@52 1303 Note that the indent depth of an @code{\item} word and its descriptive
yuuji@51 1304 paragraph are the same in latter case. If you want to use different
yuuji@51 1305 depth, invoke fill-paragraph at the beginning of non-whitespace
yuuji@51 1306 character(see below).
yuuji@51 1307
yuuji@51 1308 @section Filling paragraph
yuuji@51 1309 @cindex Filling paragraph
yuuji@51 1310 @cindex M-q
yuuji@51 1311
yuuji@51 1312 Fill-paragraph is little bit adapted for La@TeX{} sources. It retains from
yuuji@51 1313 filling in certain environments where formatting leads to a disaster such
yuuji@51 1314 as verbatim, tabular, or so. And it protects @code{\verb} expressions
yuuji@51 1315 from being folded (The variable @code{YaTeX-verb-regexp} controls this).
yuuji@51 1316 Besides, putting cursor on the first occurrence of non-whitespace
yuuji@51 1317 character on a line changes the fill-prefix temporarily to the depth of
yuuji@51 1318 the line.

yuuji@28 1433 @code{YaTeX-intelligent-newline-foo} to insert corresponding contents.
yuuji@28 1434 That function will be called at the beginning of the next line after the
yuuji@28 1435 newline is inserted to the current line. Since the function
yuuji@28 1436 @code{YaTeX-indent-line} is designed to indent the current line properly,
yuuji@28 1437 calling this function before your code to insert certain contents must be
yuuji@28 1438 useful. See the definition of the function
yuuji@28 1439 @code{YaTeX-intelligent-newline-itemize} as an example.

yuuji@20 1465 There are two help file, `global help' and `private help'. The former
yuuji@20 1466 file contains the descriptions on the standard La@TeX{} command and is
yuuji@20 1467 specified its name by variable @code{YaTeX-help-file}. Usually, the
yuuji@20 1468 global help file should be located in public space (@code{$EMACSEXECPATH}
yuuji@20 1469 by default) and should be world writable so that anyone can update it to
yuuji@20 1470 enrich its contents. The latter file contains descriptions on
yuuji@20 1471 non-standard or personal command definitions and is specified by
yuuji@20 1472 @code{YaTeX-help-file-private}. This file should be put into private
yuuji@20 1473 directory.

yuuji@58 1910 @subsection How the add-in function works
yuuji@49 1911
yuuji@49 1912 There are two kinds of add-in. @dfn{Option add-in} returns the
yuuji@49 1913 La@TeX{}'s optional parameters such as optional strings after
yuuji@49 1914 @code{\begin@{ENV@}}, optional strings between a section-type command
yuuji@49 1915 and its first argument, and optional strings just after type
yuuji@49 1916 maketitle-type command. The following illustrates the name of add-in
yuuji@49 1917 functions, where underlined strings are generated by add-in functions.
yuuji@49 1918
yuuji@49 1919 @display
yuuji@49 1920 \begin{table}[ht] (Function name: YaTeX:table)
yuuji@49 1921 ~~~~
yuuji@49 1922 \put(100,200){} (Function name: YaTeX:put)
yuuji@49 1923 ~~~~~~~~~
yuuji@49 1924 \sum_{i=0}^{n} (Function name: YaTeX:sum)
yuuji@49 1925 ~~~~~~~~~~
yuuji@49 1926 @end display
yuuji@49 1927
yuuji@49 1928 Obviously, the function name is decided by concatenating the prefix
yuuji@49 1929 `YaTeX:' and La@TeX{} command's name.
yuuji@49 1930
yuuji@49 1931 Another add-in type is @dfn{argument add-in}, which completes arguments
yuuji@49 1932 for section-type commands.
yuuji@49 1933
yuuji@49 1934 @display
yuuji@49 1935 \newcommand{\foo}{bar} (Function name: YaTeX::newcommand)
yuuji@49 1936 ~~~~ ~~~
yuuji@49 1937 @end display
yuuji@49 1938
yuuji@49 1939 When the section-type command is inputted, the function named by
yuuji@49 1940 concatenating `YaTeX::' and section-type command, is called automatically
yuuji@49 1941 with an integer argument which indicates which argument of section-type
yuuji@49 1942 command is being read. Thus the add-in should determine the
yuuji@51 1943 job referring the value of its argument.

yuuji@49 1980
yuuji@49 1981 This section describes how to define the add-in function for
yuuji@49 1982 @code{\newcommand}.
yuuji@49 1983
yuuji@49 1984 The first argument of @code{\newcommand} begins always with @code{\}.
yuuji@49 1985 The second argument is usually so complex that we can not edit them in the
yuuji@49 1986 minibuffer. Here is the created function considering this.
yuuji@49 1987

yuuji@49 2002 @subsection How the function is called
yuuji@49 2003
yuuji@49 2004 YaTeX calls the add-in functions for specified begin-type, section-type,
yuuji@49 2005 and maketitle-type command, if any. `Option add-in' functions for
yuuji@49 2006 begin-type are called when @code{\begin@{ENV@}} has been inserted,
yuuji@49 2007 functions for section-type are called just before input of the first
yuuji@49 2008 argument, and functions for maketitle-type is called after maketitle-type
yuuji@49 2009 command has been inserted. `Argument add-in' functions are called at each
yuuji@49 2010 entry of arguments for section-type commands.

yuuji@49 2015
yuuji@49 2016 Many add-in functions for typical La@TeX{} commands are defined in
yuuji@49 2017 @file{yatexadd.el}. Those are also useful as references. Here are the
yuuji@49 2018 short descriptions on useful functions, where [F] means function, [A]
yuuji@49 2019 means arguments, [D] means description.
yuuji@49 2020
yuuji@49 2021 @itemize
yuuji@49 2022 @item [F]
yuuji@49 2023 YaTeX:read-position
yuuji@49 2024 @itemx [A]
yuuji@49 2025 Character list which can show up in the brackets
yuuji@49 2026 @itemx [D]
yuuji@49 2027 Return the location specifier such as `[htb]'. When
yuuji@49 2028 nothing is entered, omit [] itself. If the possible characters
yuuji@49 2029 are "htbp", call this function as
yuuji@49 2030 @code{(YaTeX:read-position "htbp")}
yuuji@49 2031
yuuji@49 2032 @item [F]
yuuji@49 2033 YaTeX:read-coordinates
yuuji@49 2034 @itemx [A]
yuuji@49 2035 Base prompt, X-axis prompt, Y-axis prompt (each optional)
yuuji@49 2036 @itemx [D]
yuuji@51 2037 Read the coordinates with the prompt ``BasePrompt X-axisPrompt:'' for
yuuji@49 2038 X-axis, ``BasePrompt Y-axisPrompt:'' for Y-axis, and return it in the form
yuuji@51 2039 of ``(X,Y)''. The default prompts are @code{Dimension}, @code{X},
yuuji@49 2040 @code{Y} respectively.
yuuji@49 2041
yuuji@49 2042 @item [F]
yuuji@51 2043 YaTeX:check-completion-type
yuuji@49 2044 @itemx [A]
yuuji@49 2045 One of the symbols: 'begin, 'section, or 'maketitle
yuuji@49 2046 @itemx [D]
yuuji@49 2047 Check the current completion type is specified one and cause error if
yuuji@49 2048 not. The variable @code{YaTeX-current-completion-type} holds the symbol
yuuji@49 2049 according to the current completion type.

yuuji@49 2061 @section Add-in generator
yuuji@49 2062
yuuji@49 2063 First, don't forget to read the section of add-in functions @ref{Add-in
yuuji@49 2064 functions}. If you easily understand how to define them, there's no need
yuuji@49 2065 to read this section. But being not familiar with Emacs-Lisp, when you
yuuji@49 2066 don't have clear idea what to do, this section describes how to get YaTeX
yuuji@49 2067 make add-in function.
yuuji@49 2068
yuuji@49 2069 There are two methods of generation. One is for fully interactive
yuuji@49 2070 generator for beginners and another requires little knowledge of
yuuji@49 2071 Emacs-Lisp.
yuuji@49 2072
yuuji@49 2073 @subsection Generator for beginners
yuuji@49 2074 The former generator is called by
yuuji@49 2075 @center @kbd{M-x YaTeX-generate}
yuuji@49 2076
yuuji@49 2077 @noindent
yuuji@49 2078 strokes. All you have to do is follow the guidances. Defying them may cases
yuuji@49 2079 the disaster (I wonder what is it???). So when you make some mistake, it
yuuji@49 2080 is recommendable to type @kbd{C-g} and start afresh.
yuuji@49 2081
yuuji@49 2082 @subsection Simple generator
yuuji@49 2083
yuuji@49 2084 The latter generator is invoked by the next sequence.
yuuji@49 2085 @center @kbd{M-x YaTeX-generate-simple}
yuuji@49 2086 This generator can make both ``option add-in'' and ``argument add-in''
yuuji@49 2087 (@emph{refer the section add-in functions}
yuuji@68 2088 @ref{How the add-in function works}), whereas @code{YaTeX-generate}
yuuji@49 2089 cannot make ``argument addin''.
yuuji@49 2090
yuuji@49 2091 For example, assume you have the LaTeX command as follows.
yuuji@49 2092
yuuji@49 2093 @example
yuuji@49 2094 \epsinput[t](250,50){hoge.eps}{plain}{Picture of foo}
yuuji@49 2095 (A) (B) (1) (2) (3)
yuuji@49 2096 (A)Optional parameter to specify the position
yuuji@49 2097 One of t(top), b(bottom), l(left), r(right)
yuuji@49 2098 (B)Maximum size of frame
yuuji@49 2099 (1)1st argument is filename of EPS file
yuuji@49 2100 (2)2nd argument indicates
yuuji@49 2101 plain do nothing
yuuji@49 2102 frame make frame around image
yuuji@49 2103 dframe make double-frame around image
yuuji@49 2104 for included EPS file.
yuuji@49 2105 (3)Caption for the picture
yuuji@49 2106 @end example
yuuji@49 2107
yuuji@49 2108 Now get start with generation. Typing @kbd{M-x YaTeX-generate-simple}
yuuji@49 2109 brings the prompt:
yuuji@49 2110 @display
yuuji@49 2111 (O)ption? (A)rgument?
yuuji@49 2112 @end display
yuuji@49 2113
yuuji@49 2114 @subsubsection Generating ``option add-in''
yuuji@49 2115 @cindex option add-in
yuuji@49 2116
yuuji@49 2117 Since (A), (B) above are optional argument, all we have to do to
yuuji@49 2118 complete them is define the option add-in for them. Let's generate the
yuuji@49 2119 function to complete (A).
yuuji@49 2120
yuuji@49 2121 @display
yuuji@49 2122 M-x YaTeX-generate-simple RET
yuuji@49 2123 epsinput RET
yuuji@49 2124 o
yuuji@49 2125 @end display
yuuji@49 2126
yuuji@49 2127 @noindent
yuuji@49 2128 Typing as above leads the next prompt.
yuuji@49 2129
yuuji@49 2130 @display
yuuji@49 2131 Read type(1): (S)tring (C)omplete (F)ile ([)option (P)osition co(O)rd. (q)uit
yuuji@49 2132 @end display
yuuji@49 2133
yuuji@49 2134 @noindent
yuuji@49 2135 This asks that ``Which type is the completion style of 1st argument?''.
yuuji@49 2136 Here are the possible completion style.
yuuji@49 2137
yuuji@49 2138 @table @code
yuuji@49 2139 @item String
yuuji@49 2140 read plain string
yuuji@49 2141 @item Complete
yuuji@49 2142 read with completion
yuuji@49 2143 @item File
yuuji@49 2144 read file name
yuuji@49 2145 @item Option
yuuji@49 2146 read optional string (if string omitted, omit [] too)
yuuji@49 2147 @item Position
yuuji@49 2148 read positional option (like [htbp])
yuuji@49 2149 @item Coord.
yuuji@51 2150 read coordinates
yuuji@49 2151 @item Quit
yuuji@51 2152 quit from generating
yuuji@49 2153 @end table
yuuji@49 2154
yuuji@49 2155 Since (A) is the optional argument to specify the location of included
yuuji@49 2156 EPS file, the completion style is @code{Position}, and the possible
yuuji@49 2157 characters are t, b, l, and r. To tell these information to generator,
yuuji@49 2158 operate as follows.
yuuji@49 2159
yuuji@49 2160 @display
yuuji@49 2161 Read type(1).... p
yuuji@49 2162 Acceptable characters: tblr RET
yuuji@49 2163 @end display
yuuji@49 2164
yuuji@49 2165 (B) is coordinate. So its completion style is coOrd. We want a prompt
yuuji@49 2166 meaning ``Maximum size'' when completion.
yuuji@49 2167
yuuji@49 2168 @display
yuuji@49 2169 Read type(2).... o
yuuji@49 2170 Prompt for coordinates: Max size RET
yuuji@49 2171 @end display
yuuji@49 2172
yuuji@49 2173 That's all for optional argument. Select quit.
yuuji@49 2174
yuuji@49 2175 @display
yuuji@49 2176 Read type(3).... q
yuuji@49 2177 @end display
yuuji@49 2178
yuuji@49 2179 Then the generated option add-in function for \epsinput will be shown in
yuuji@49 2180 the next window.
yuuji@49 2181
yuuji@49 2182 @subsubsection Generating ``argument add-in''
yuuji@49 2183 @cindex argument add-in
yuuji@49 2184
yuuji@49 2185 Next, create the argument add-in. The arguments for \epsinput are EPS
yuuji@49 2186 file name, framing style, and caption string in sequence.
yuuji@49 2187
yuuji@49 2188 @display
yuuji@49 2189 M-x YaTeX-generate-simple RET
yuuji@49 2190 epsinput RET
yuuji@49 2191 a
yuuji@49 2192 @end display
yuuji@49 2193
yuuji@49 2194 Above key strokes bring the prompt that asks the number of argument.
yuuji@49 2195 Answer it with 3.
yuuji@49 2196
yuuji@49 2197 @display
yuuji@49 2198 How many arguments?: 3 RET
yuuji@49 2199 @end display
yuuji@49 2200
yuuji@49 2201 Then the generator asks the completion style and prompt for completion.
yuuji@49 2202 Answer them. @kbd{f} for FileName and prompt string.
yuuji@49 2203
yuuji@49 2204 @display
yuuji@49 2205 Read type(1).... f
yuuji@49 2206 Prompt for argument#1 EPS file name RET
yuuji@49 2207 @end display
yuuji@49 2208
yuuji@49 2209 The second argument is one of selected symbol. So the completion type
yuuji@49 2210 is @code{Completion}.
yuuji@49 2211
yuuji@49 2212 @display
yuuji@49 2213 Read type(2).... c
yuuji@49 2214 Prompt for argument#2 Include style RET
yuuji@49 2215 @end display
yuuji@49 2216
yuuji@49 2217 Then all the candidates ready to be read. Type single RET after
yuuji@49 2218 entering all.
yuuji@49 2219
yuuji@49 2220 @display
yuuji@49 2221 Item[1](RET to exit): plain RET
yuuji@49 2222 Item[2](RET to exit): frame RET
yuuji@49 2223 Item[3](RET to exit): dframe RET
yuuji@49 2224 Item[4](RET to exit): RET
yuuji@49 2225 @end display
yuuji@49 2226
yuuji@49 2227 The following prompt asks whether the entered string must belong to
yuuji@49 2228 candidates or not. In this case, since the argument must be one of
yuuji@49 2229 @code{plain}, @code{frame}, and @code{dframe}, type @code{y}.
yuuji@49 2230
yuuji@49 2231 @display
yuuji@49 2232 Require match? (y or n) y
yuuji@49 2233 @end display
yuuji@49 2234
yuuji@49 2235 The last argument is the caption string for which any completion is
yuuji@49 2236 needed.
yuuji@49 2237
yuuji@49 2238 @display
yuuji@49 2239 Read type(3).... s
yuuji@49 2240 Prompt for argument#3 Caption RET
yuuji@49 2241 default: Figure of RET
yuuji@49 2242 @end display
yuuji@49 2243
yuuji@49 2244 Finally we'll get the argument add-in in the next window.

yuuji@20 2256 The standard completion tables provided in @file{yatex.el} contain a
yuuji@20 2257 few La@TeX{} commands I frequently use. This is to lessen the key
yuuji@20 2258 strokes to complete entire word, because too many candidates
yuuji@20 2259 rarely used often cause too many hits. Therefore always try to
yuuji@20 2260 use completion in order to enrich your dictionary, and you will
yuuji@20 2261 also find `Wild Bird' growing suitable for your La@TeX{} style.
yuuji@20 2262
yuuji@51 2263 The package name `Wild Bird' is the English translation of Japanese
yuuji@51 2264 title `Yachou', which is a trick on words of Japanese.
