<expand|tmdoc-title|Further customization of the interface>
Having written a working interface between your system and <apply|TeXmacs>,
you may want to improve it further. Below, we will discuss a few directions
for possible improvement.
First of all, you may want to customize the keyboard behavior inside a
<verbatim|myplugin>-session and add appropriate menus. The mechanisms for
doing that are described in the chapter about the <name|Guile/Scheme>
extension language and you may add such support to the file
<verbatim|init-myplugin.scm>. We again recommend you to take a look at the
plugins which are shipped with <TeXmacs> inside the directory
<verbatim|$TEXMACS_HOME_PATH/plugins>.
Certain output from your system might require a special markup. For
instance, assume that you want to associate an invisible type to each
subexpression in the output. Then you may create a macro
<verbatim|exprtype> with two arguments in <verbatim|myplugin.ts> and send
<apply|LaTeX> expressions like <verbatim|\\exprtype{1}{Integer}> to
<apply|TeXmacs> during the output.
In the case when you connected your system to <apply|TeXmacs> using pipes,
you may directly execute <apply|TeXmacs> commands during the output from
your system by incorporating pieces of code of the form:
<\verbatim>
\ \ \ \ [DATA_BEGIN]command:scheme-program[DATA_END]
</verbatim>
in your output. Inversily, when the cursor is inside a session of your
system, you may use the <name|Scheme> command:
<\verbatim>
\ \ \ \ (extern-exec plugin-command)
</verbatim>
in order to execute a command of your system.
