|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
One of the main purposes of <TeXmacs> is to edit mathematical formulas. If
|
|
|
|
|
the cursor is inside a<nbsp>formula (<abbr|i.e.> inside ``math mode''),
|
|
|
|
|
then the mode sensitive menus and toolbars provide buttons for entering
|
|
|
|
|
common mathematical constructs. Similarly, as will be detailed in this
|
|
|
|
|
section, the bahaviour of the keyboard changes so as to allow for the rapid
|
|
|
|
|
typing of mathematical symbols. For instance, typing <key|- \<gtr\>>
|
|
|
|
|
inserts the arrow <math|\<rightarrow\>>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Starting with version 1.0.7.10, <TeXmacs> also incorporates several
|
|
|
|
|
features for the ``semantic'' editing of mathematical formulas, which will
|
|
|
|
|
be described at the end of this section. When used appropriately, this
|
|
|
|
|
allows you to write documents in which all formulas are at least correct
|
|
|
|
|
from a syntactical point of view. A ``syntax corrector'' is included to
|
|
|
|
|
assist you with this task. Documents with more semantics are for instance
|
|
|
|
|
useful when using formulas as inputs for a computer algebra system. Such
|
|
|
|
|
documents are also less likely to contain ``typos''. Other interesting
|
|
|
|
|
features, such as semantic search and replace, should be developed in the
|

|
|
future.
