- TeXify paket
- ============
-
- Why this paket?? Because it make's using AmigaTeX so simple.
- Everything can be done with AmigaTeX without leaving the
- CEDPro editor!!!! Tough, the paket isn't small but does nearly
- everything for you. Take the time to try it out!!!
-
- A short overview of the programs and their tasks:
-
- o TeXify.ced - This is the main program. This one starts
- AmigaTeX with your given textfile. In case of errors you'll
- get a report. In case of everything works fine, preview will show
- up. For all those special feature see later...
-
- o TeXifyLookNext.ced - TeXify.ced only reports the first error
- in you textfile. For further error messages start this rexx
- program and you'll get a fine error report for all thoe
- outstanding error messages (cursor gets positioned at the
- faulty place).
-
- o TeXPrint.ced - Start this one from CEDPro and you'll get
- your .dvi text printed in backround...
-
- o TeXifySetMacro.ced - After starting this one you can give
- in your wanted macropaket (plain, lplain...). Next time
- your start TeXify.ced this pakage will be used.
-
- o TeXifyExit.ced - With this program you have the ability in
- CEDPro to force TeX to exit
-
-
- Installation
- ============
-
- Just copy all those programs in your rexx: drawer. You must
- adopt most of these programs to your environment. This is
- simple and should be no problem. Everything you need to know
- for this task is stated at the beginning of each program.
- (for further adjustment there are some default settings at the
- beginning of TeXify.ced... see the comments or the german
- "Liesmich" file for further description)
-
- Assign every program to a CEDPro function key. If you wan't
- AmigaTeX to run asyncron you have to run rx (that means you
- should assign something like "Rexxc:rx Texify.ced").
- TeXify.ced is programed for running asyncorn. You may even
- exit CEDPro after the TeX shellwindow show's up. In case of an
- error in your textfile CEDPro will be loaded again.
-
-
- Using those features
- ====================
-
- Simply type in your TeX source and press the TeXify.ced
- function key when finish. After a while a shellwindow will
- show up with TeX. TeX will stay resident until you exit it
- with the "TeXifyExit.ced" function key (so next time you start
- TeXify.ced it'll be fast !). In case you started TeXify.ced by
- using the rx command, you can continue editing after the
- shellwindow appears. To do this, press L-ALT L-SHIFT RETURN at
- the same time and the CEDPro screen will pop up again for more
- editing. You may even exit CEDPro after starting TeXify.ced (ey,
- isn't that real multitasking??!!! Amiga lives!)
-
- In case of an error you will get a Okay1 Requester with a
- description and your cursor will be positioned at the faulty
- point in your textfile. In case you textfile isn't loaded in
- CEDPro, TeXify will load it for you (yep! handles multiple
- TeX source files !!! great, isn't it?).
-
- In case you got more than one error, you can go further with
- "debuging" by using the "TeXifyLookNext.ced" function key.
- This programs will show you all error beginning from the
- second.
-
- In most times you wan't to stop TeX after a count of errors
- (only the first erors will make sense...). For this purpose
- you can adjust the errorcount statement at the beginning of
- the TeXify,ced program.
-
- Now you may use more then one makropackage (laplain, plain,
- glplain,...). For this purpose you can add the following
- statement at the very beginning of your TeX source:
-
- % macropackage = lplain
-
- The keyword "macropackage" can be easily changed (see the first
- statements in TeXify.ced) for compatibility with other shells
- (Stefan Lindner...). The keyword is case insensitive and the
- "=" char may be leave out. So all those following statements
- are the same:
-
- % macropackage = latex
- % MacROpackage latex
-
-
- When there is no more error caused by your source, it will
- show up in preview. In case everything is fine start TeXPrint.ced
- for a dump to your printer (there will be a window on your WB
- screen telling you how far in progress)
-
-
-
- so... it's 5:30am and that's all I got to tell you now... in
- case of confuse: you know my e-mail address!
