You can select text and formulas by maintaining the left mouse button. In
|
|
order to delete the selected region, use <menu|Edit|Cut> or
|
|
<shortcut|(kbd-cut)>. In order to copy the selected region, first click on
|
|
<menu|Edit|Copy> or hit <shortcut|(kbd-copy)>. Next, paste it as many times
|
|
as you want to the location of your cursor, using <menu|Edit|Paste> or
|
|
<shortcut|(kbd-paste)>. Alternatively, you may copy a selected region using
|
|
the middle mouse button.
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to change the text properties of a selected region. For
|
|
instance, in order to transform some black text in red, you select it using
|
|
the left mouse button and click on <render-menu|Format|<rigid|<render-menu|Color|<tabular*|<tformat|<cwith|1|1|1|1|cell-vcorrect|n>|<cwith|1|1|1|1|cell-lsep|1spc>|<cwith|1|1|1|1|cell-rsep|1spc>|<cwith|1|1|1|1|cell-bsep|1spc>|<cwith|1|1|1|1|cell-tsep|1spc>|<cwith|1|1|1|1|cell-width|1.5em>|<cwith|1|1|1|1|cell-hmode|exact>|<cwith|1|1|1|1|cell-background|red>|<table|<row|<cell|>>>>>>>>.
|
|
Similarly, if you select a formula and you click on <menu|Insert|Fraction>,
|
|
then the formula becomes the numerator of the newly created fraction.
|
|
|
|
When using the copy and paste mechanism to communicate with other
|
|
applications, text is copied and pasted using the <TeXmacs> data format.
|
|
You may specify other import and export formats using
|
|
<menu|Tools|Miscellaneous|Import selections as> <abbr|resp.>
|
|
<menu|Tools|Miscellaneous|Export selections as>. Alternatively, you may
|
|
directly copy to or paste from an external format using the first group of
|
|
entries in the <menu|Edit|Copy to> and <menu|Edit|Paste from> submenus. For
|
|
instance, a <LaTeX> formula can be pasted inside a <TeXmacs> formula using
|
|
<menu|Edit|Paste from|LaTeX>.
|
|
|
|
By default, copying and pasting uses the \Pprimary clipboard\Q. Using the
|
|
remaining entries in the <menu|Edit|Copy to> and <menu|Edit|Paste from>
|
|
menus, you may specify as many other clipboards as you like. This allows
|
|
you to keep multiple selections in memory, ready to be pasted.
|
|
|
|
There are two ways to make selections using the keyboard. When using the
|
|
cursor keys <key|left>, <key|right>, <abbr|etc.> while holding down the
|
|
<prefix|S-> button, you may select text while moving around the cursor.
|
|
Alternatively, you may press <shortcut|(kbd-select-enlarge)> once to fix a
|
|
starting position. When moving around using the cursor keys, the text
|
|
between the starting position and the current position keeps being
|
|
selected. The selection gets cleared by pressing
|
|
<shortcut|(selection-cancel)>.
|
|
|
|
Notice that the <shortcut|(kbd-select-enlarge)> shortcut also allows you to
|
|
make <em|structured selections>. You may select the current word you are in
|
|
by pressing <shortcut|(kbd-select-enlarge)> twice. Each additional time you
|
|
press <shortcut|(kbd-select-enlarge)> results in the selection of the
|
|
smallest structure that englobes the current selection. Ultimately, when
|
|
the entire document gets selected, pressing <shortcut|(kbd-select-enlarge)>
|
|
once more clears the selection.
