|
|
yuuji@54
|
9 *Installing the manual
|
|
yuuji@56
|
10
|
|
yuuji@56
|
11 Copy yatexe to the info directory where your Emacs is installed,
|
|
yuuji@56
|
12 and add the next line to the dir file of the same directory.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
13
|
|
yuuji@54
|
14 * YaTeX: (yatexj). Yet Another tex-mode for Emacs. (Japanese).
|
|
yuuji@54
|
15
|
|
yuuji@56
|
16 (After that, M-x info [RET] m yatex [RET] will give you Wild
|
|
yuuji@56
|
17 Bird's manual. Hitting ? will show how to use info)
|
|
yuuji@54
|
18
|
|
yuuji@54
|
19 *I ain't got the privilege to write in the Info directory...
|
|
yuuji@56
|
20
|
|
yuuji@56
|
21 Get yourself made root. If you can't, have them install Mule2
|
|
yuuji@56
|
22 and add
|
|
yuuji@54
|
23
|
|
yuuji@54
|
24 (setq Info-default-directory-list
|
|
yuuji@54
|
25 (cons "YOUR INFO DIRECTORY"
|
|
yuuji@54
|
26 Info-default-directory-list))
|
|
yuuji@54
|
27
|
|
yuuji@56
|
28 to your ~/.emacs. Now your personal files will be added to the
|
|
yuuji@56
|
29 menu when you invoke info. By the way, Mule1 will not release
|
|
yuuji@56
|
30 memories, so processes will pile up and be heavier on the system
|
|
yuuji@56
|
31 compared to Mule2. Nemacs has already become obsolete by the
|
|
yuuji@56
|
32 developers, so no further comments for usage of Nemacs. Get
|
|
yuuji@56
|
33 yourself Mule2 with flying colors :-)
|
|
yuuji@54
|
34
|
|
yuuji@54
|
35 *Emacs can't find the help file.
|
|
yuuji@56
|
36
|
|
yuuji@56
|
37 The help file is set to be placed in $EMACS/etc/ for Nemacs,
|
|
yuuji@56
|
38 Mule1 and $EMACS/site-lisp/ for Mule2. If you don't have the
|
|
yuuji@56
|
39 privilege to put them in a public location, copy it to your home
|
|
yuuji@56
|
40 directory and set YaTeX-help-file to that file name.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
41
|
|
yuuji@54
|
42 *I can't read info on Nemacs
|
|
yuuji@54
|
43
|
|
yuuji@56
|
44 The info file was formatted on Mule, so it can't be read
|
|
yuuji@56
|
45 correctly on Nemacs (or Demacs based on Nemacs) because the
|
|
yuuji@56
|
46 internal Japanese processing is different. Read it on Mule.
|
|
yuuji@56
|
47 Use the Emacs-Lisp package in texinfo-3.1.tar.gz to format the
|
|
yuuji@56
|
48 Texinfo file.

51 [Operations]
|
|
yuuji@56
|
52 ============
|
|
yuuji@54
|
53 *I accidentally learned in a wrong LaTeX command.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
54
|
|
yuuji@56
|
55 There should be a line with the wrong command in the .yatexrc
|
|
yuuji@56
|
56 file in you home or current directory. Erase that line, do M-x
|
|
yuuji@54
|
57 eval-current-buffer and save the results with C-x C-s.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
58
|
|
yuuji@54
|
59 *I can't comment out the region.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
60
|
|
yuuji@56
|
61 Probably the point is on a line withe \begin{} or \end{}. Go up
|
|
yuuji@56
|
62 or down a line and do C-c >.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
63
|
|
yuuji@54
|
64 *I was asked for a parent file when typesetting, and answered the wrong file.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
65
|
|
yuuji@56
|
66 Re-read the child file with C-x C-v RET or re-type the parent
|
|
yuuji@56
|
67 file with C-u C-c ^.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
68
|
|
yuuji@54
|
69 *The typeset buffer is not shown when I get a typeset buffer on Demacs.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
70
|
|
yuuji@56
|
71 This happens on Demacs 1.2.0, when the child process returns an
|
|
yuuji@56
|
72 error level of 1 or more. If you are calling jlatex from a
|
|
yuuji@56
|
73 batch file, call a dummy command that always returns errorlevel
|
|
yuuji@56
|
74 0 at the end.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
75
|
|
yuuji@54
|
76 *How can I enter "\underline{\makebox[4em][l]{x y}{\tt z}}" more easily?
|
|
yuuji@54
|
77
|
|
yuuji@56
|
78 Recursive completion can be used for inputting arguments in the
|
|
yuuji@56
|
79 mini-buffer of a section type completion. Following is an
|
|
yuuji@56
|
80 example showing the command in question.

|
91 *How can I kill \footnote{} from \footnote{HOGE}
|
|
yuuji@54
|
92
|
|
yuuji@56
|
93 Put the point to \footnote and do C-c k. This will kill the
|
|
yuuji@56
|
94 \footnote{}. If you want to kill the whole thing including
|
|
yuuji@56
|
95 HOGE, do C-u C-c k.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
96
|
|
yuuji@54
|
97 *I want to make HONYARA into a footnote.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
98
|
|
yuuji@54
|
99 Mark HONYARA and do C-c S footnote RET. (S in uppercase)
|
|
yuuji@54
|
100
|
|
yuuji@54
|
101 *I want to make the verbatim environment I have now into verbatim*.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
102
|
|
yuuji@54
|
103 Do C-c c on the line with \begin{verbatim} or \end{verbatim}.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
104
|
|
yuuji@54
|
105 *I want to enclose a region with \verb.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
106
|
|
yuuji@54
|
107 \verb isn't a maketitle-type, so there aren't any quick commands.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
108 But you can use C-c $ to do the same thing.

|
yuuji@56
|
109 v v

yuuji@54
|
116
|
|
yuuji@54
|
117 *I want to have commands defined on a upper level file to be read in
|
|
yuuji@54
|
118 when doing a typeset-region on a child file.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
119
|
|
yuuji@56
|
120 When you are editing child files broken into sections and some
|
|
yuuji@56
|
121 macros to be used are defined in upper level files, you'll need
|
|
yuuji@56
|
122 them to do typeset-region. The macros needed will be copied to
|
|
yuuji@56
|
123 the temporary file if you add %#REQUIRE to the end of the
|
|
yuuji@56
|
124 macro's definition.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
125
|
|
yuuji@54
|
126 Say you had a grand-child file
|
|
yuuji@54
|
127 +-- main.tex --+ +---- sub.tex ----+ +-- subsub.tex --+
|
|
yuuji@54
|
128 | : | |%#jlatex main | |%#jlatex main |
|
|
yuuji@54
|
129 |\include{sub} | |\include{macros} | |..... |
|
|
yuuji@54
|
130 | : |<-| : |<-|%#BEGIN |
|
|
yuuji@54
|
131 | : | | : | |TEXT YOU WANT |
|
|
yuuji@54
|
132 | : | +-----------------+ |TYPESET IS |
|
|
yuuji@54
|
133 +--------------+ ^ |HERE |
|
|
yuuji@54
|
134 +-- macros.tex ---+ |%#END |
|
|
yuuji@56
|
135 |\def\foo{bar} | |: |

|
yuuji@56
|
136 |\def\hoge{hero} | +----------------+
|
|
yuuji@56
|
137 +-----------------+
|
|
yuuji@54
|
138
|
|
yuuji@54
|
139 In this case you change the \include{macros} line in sub.tex to
|
|
yuuji@54
|
140
|
|
yuuji@54
|
141 \include{macros} %#REQUIRE
|
|
yuuji@54
|
142
|
|
yuuji@54
|
143 and add to subsub.tex
|
|
yuuji@54
|
144
|
|
yuuji@54
|
145 %#REQUIRE \include{macros}
|
|
yuuji@54
|
146
|
|
yuuji@56
|
147 If %#REQUIRE is at the top of the line, the following will be
|
|
yuuji@56
|
148 copied to the temporary file. So, macros.tex will be included
|
|
yuuji@56
|
149 only once whether you are typesetting all the files, or doing a
|
|
yuuji@56
|
150 typeset-region on sub.tex or subsub.tex.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
151
|
|
yuuji@54
|
152 *I want to reuse ARGUMENTS I used in the last \foo{ARGUMENTS}
|
|
yuuji@54
|
153
|
|
yuuji@56
|
154 Use the gmhist package. YaTeX works fine with gmhist. When you
|
|
yuuji@56
|
155 are asked \foo{???}: in the mini-buffer, hitting M-p (ESC p)
|
|
yuuji@56
|
156 will get you a history of what you have inputted in reverse.
|
|
yuuji@56
|
157 M-n will go forward in the history. This input history can be
|
|
yuuji@56
|
158 used for begin-type completion, section-type completion, evoking
|
|
yuuji@56
|
159 the previewer, and print out commands.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
160
|
|
yuuji@56
|
161 gmhist can be found at many Emacs-Lisp archive sights. For
|
|
yuuji@56
|
162 example, ftp.ae.keio.ac.jp:pub/emacs-lisp/util/gmhist.tar.gz
|
|
yuuji@56
|
163
|
|
yuuji@56
|
164 Note that Emacs-19(Mule2) doesn't need gmhist for the feature of
|
|
yuuji@56
|
165 minibuffer history.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
166
|
|
yuuji@54
|
167 *ref<->label jump doesn't work.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
168
|
|
yuuji@56
|
169 C-c g will start a forward search of ref/label. C-u C-c g will
|
|
yuuji@56
|
170 start a backward search. If you want to continue searching for
|
|
yuuji@56
|
171 \ref, hit C-s (C-r) twice and use the repeated search feature of
|
|
yuuji@56
|
172 the incremental search. If the point to jump is in another
|
|
yuuji@56
|
173 file, that file must be already opened. YaTeX-display-hierarchy
|
|
yuuji@56
|
174 (C-c d) can be used to open all files at once.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
175
|
|
yuuji@54
|
176 *I get a % at the end of the line when I do a fill-paragraph or auto-fill.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
177
|
|
yuuji@56
|
178 NTT-jTeX will add an unnecessary space in the print out image if
|
|
yuuji@56
|
179 the japanese paragraph is written with an indent. To avoid
|
|
yuuji@56
|
180 this, you need to put a % at the end of the line. YaTeX will
|
|
yuuji@56
|
181 automatically put a % so you can input indented text for
|
|
yuuji@56
|
182 NTT-jTeX. But there may be a bug in the routine so please
|
|
yuuji@56
|
183 report if you find any %s otherwise than at the end of a line.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
184
|
|
yuuji@54
|
185 *Isn't the indentation too deep in itemize environments?
|
|
yuuji@54
|
186
|
|
yuuji@56
|
187 Think so too? An alias Mr. K thought this was better and he
|
|
yuuji@56
|
188 feels an ultimate ecstacy with hitting the TAB to indent a line.
|
|
yuuji@56
|
189 Wasn't my idea! (still have a bit of a grudge) If you also
|
|
yuuji@56
|
190 think it's too deep, hit TAB at the end of the line with
|
|
yuuji@56
|
191 \begin{itemize} within the environment. Now it's too shallow?
|
|
yuuji@56
|
192 Umm... time for me to take a break.

195 ======================
|
|
yuuji@56
|
196 *Equations are too dark to read when I use hilit19.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
197
|
|
yuuji@54
|
198 The default coloring of hilit19.el is too dark. Try putting the
|
|
yuuji@54
|
199 next code in ~/.emacs or yatexhks.el.
|
|
yuuji@54

207 *Can't I use font-lock?
|
|
yuuji@54
|
208
|
|
yuuji@56
|
209 The document says, "pattern must be specified within a line".
|
|
yuuji@56
|
210 So it seems you can't chose a pattern like from \begin to \end
|
|
yuuji@56
|
211 that laps more than one line. But on the other hand, multiple
|
|
yuuji@56
|
212 line comments in C seems to work fine... So what's the real
|
|
yuuji@56
|
213 story? Anybody know the answer? If so, teach me, or try
|
|
yuuji@56
|

217 *It's sooo slow when I click YaTeX on the menu bar.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
218
|
|
yuuji@56
|
219 I don't know why. Probably a problem with Emacs-19. You'll
|
|
yuuji@56
|
220 just have to bear with it. It won't be so slow the second time.
|
|
yuuji@56

221 Anyway, you probably won't use the menu at all, do you?
|
|
yuuji@56

222

223 *Is there any way of displaying `\it' strings in the italic font?
|
|
yuuji@56
|
224
|
|
yuuji@56
|
225 First, you should find the available italic font on your
|
|
yuuji@56
|
226 system. In, *scratch* buffer,
|
|
yuuji@56
|
227 (set-face-font 'italic "-*-*-medium-i-*--*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*")
|
|
yuuji@56
|
228 or
|
|
yuuji@56
|
229 (set-face-font 'italic "-*-*-medium-o-*--*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*")
|
|
yuuji@56
|
230 and C-j (It takes very very long time!!).
|
|
yuuji@56
|
231 If you get `No matches found', no way. (;_;)/~
|
|
yuuji@56
|
232 If you get some font name,
|
|
yuuji@56
|
233 "-adobe-courier-medium-i-normal--12-120-75-75-m-0-iso8859-1"
|
|
yuuji@56
|
234 for example, write
|
|
yuuji@56
|
235 (set-face-font 'italic
|
|
yuuji@56
|
236 "-adobe-courier-medium-i-normal--12-120-75-75-m-0-iso8859-1")
|
|
yuuji@56
|

|
242 completion after hitting C-c b.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
243
|

yuuji@54

yuuji@56
|
248 This should be better, once you get used to it. If you still

249 don't like it, turn on modify-mode using C-c w m. Setting
|

yuuji@56

255 YaTeX think you are in math mode and evokes math-mode-image
|
|
yuuji@56
|
256 completion. If you are writing a equation that TeX will not
|
|
yuuji@56
|
257 give an error and YaTeX mistakes what mode you are in, report it
|
|
yuuji@56
|
258 back to the author. For mistaken judgements or if you want to
|
|
yuuji@56
|
259 enter a literal ;, hit ; twice. C-u ; to use ; as a
|
|
yuuji@56
|
260 image-completion prefix.
|
|
yuuji@54

261

|
262 *I want YaTeX to enter the option arguments for a newenvironment.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
263
|
|
yuuji@56
|
264 Read yatexadd.doc. If that's not enough, read yatexgen.doc and
|
|
yuuji@56
|
265 try M-x YaTeX-generate.
|
|

|
266
|
|

|
267 *I first defined \foo as a macro taking 3 arguments. Later I changed it
|
|
yuuji@54
|
268 to take 4 arguments, but the section-type completion will ask me for
|
|
yuuji@54
|
269 only 3 arguments.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
270
|
|
yuuji@56
|
271 Use C-u 4 C-c s and tell it will take 4 arguments. You can
|
|
yuuji@56
|
272 change the number of arguments anytime you want.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
273
|
|
yuuji@54
|
274 *I made a argument-type addin function, but can't do completion after
|
|
yuuji@54
|
275 the first two arguments.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
276
|
|
yuuji@56
|
277 If you made a addin function like \foo{x}{y}{z} that takes 3
|
|
yuuji@56
|
278 arguments, then you need to learn in the dictionary that \foo
|
|
yuuji@56
|
279 will take 3 arguments. This can be done by C-u 3 C-c s foo.
|
|
yuuji@56
|
280 You only need to do it once.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
281
|
|
yuuji@54
|
282 *My addin functions are overwritten by yatexadd.
|
|
yuuji@54
|
283
|
|
yuuji@56
|
284 Formally, all private functions were written in your own
|
|
yuuji@56
|
285 yatexadd.el. Now, all private functions are put in yatexhks.el.
|
|
yuuji@56
|
286 yatexhks.el will be read in at the end of YaTeX's
|
|
yuuji@56
|
287 initialization, so you can overwrite definitions in yatexadd.el.
