<tmdoc-title|Installing and using a plug-in>
|
|
|
|
From the user's point of view, a plug-in <verbatim|<em|myplugin>> will
|
|
usually be distributed on some web-site as a binary tarball with the name
|
|
|
|
<\verbatim>
|
|
\ \ \ \ <em|myplugin>-<em|version>-<em|architecture>.tar.gz
|
|
</verbatim>
|
|
|
|
If you installed <TeXmacs> yourself in the directory
|
|
<verbatim|$TEXMACS_PATH>, then you should unpack this tarball in the
|
|
directory <verbatim|$TEXMACS_PATH/plugins>, using
|
|
|
|
<\verbatim>
|
|
\ \ \ \ tar -zxvf <em|myplugin>-<em|version>-<em|architecture>.tar.gz
|
|
</verbatim>
|
|
|
|
This will create a <verbatim|<em|myplugin>> subdirectory in
|
|
<verbatim|$TEXMACS_PATH/plugins>. As soon as you restart <TeXmacs>, the
|
|
plug-in should be automatically recognized. If not, then click on
|
|
<menu|Tools|Update|Plugins> and relaunch <TeXmacs>. Please read the
|
|
documentation which comes with your plug-in in order to learn using it.
|
|
|
|
<\remark>
|
|
If you did not install <TeXmacs> yourself, or if you do not have write
|
|
access to <verbatim|$TEXMACS_PATH>, then you may also unpack the tarball
|
|
in <verbatim|$TEXMACS_HOME_PATH/plugins>. Here we recall that
|
|
<verbatim|$TEXMACS_HOME_PATH> defaults to <verbatim|$HOME/.TeXmacs>. When
|
|
starting <TeXmacs>, your plug-in should again be automatically
|
|
recognized.

If the plug-in is distributed as a source tarball like
|
|
<verbatim|<em|myplugin>-<em|version>-src.tar.gz>, then you should first
|
|
compile the source code before relaunching <TeXmacs>. Depending on the
|
|
plug-in (read the instructions), this is usually done using
|
|
|
|
<\verbatim>
|
|
\ \ \ \ cd <em|myplugin>; make
|
|
</verbatim>
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
<\verbatim>
|
|
\ \ \ \ cd <em|myplugin>; ./configure; make
|
|
</verbatim>

|
|
In order to upgrade a plug-in, just remove the old version in
|
|
<verbatim|$TEXMACS_PATH/plugins> or <verbatim|$TEXMACS_HOME_PATH/plugins>
|
|
using
|
|
|
|
<\verbatim>
|
|
\ \ \ \ rm -rf <em|myplugin>
|
|
</verbatim>
|
|
|
|
and reinstall as explained above.
