You can select text and formulas by maintaining the left mouse button. In
|
|
order to delete the selected region, use <menu|Edit|Cut>. In order to copy
|
|
the selected region, first click on <menu|Edit|Copy>. Next, paste it as
|
|
many times as you want to the location of your cursor, using
|
|
<menu|Edit|Paste>. Alternatively, you may copy a selected region using the
|
|
middle mouse button.
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to the change 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 <menu|Format|Color|Red>. Similarly, if you
|
|
select a formula and you click on <menu|Insert|Fraction>, then
|
|
the formula becomes the numerator of some 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|Edit|Import>
|
|
resp. <menu|Edit|Export>. By default, copying and pasting uses the primary
|
|
text buffer. Using <menu|Edit|Copy to> and <menu|Edit|Paste from>, you may
|
|
specify as many other buffers as you like.
|
|
|
|
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 when 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<nbsp><shortcut|(kbd-select-enlarge)> twice. Each additional time you press
|
|
<shortcut|(kbd-select-enlarge)> results in the selection of the smallest structure
|
|
which englobes the current selection. Ultimately, when the entire document
|
|
gets selected, pressing <shortcut|(kbd-select-enlarge)> once more clears the selection.
