^(21, 121, 122) 1021
Name
====
Opens a window where you can change the name of the main and of
the working files.
Without terminating and restarting the TeX system you can
immediately continue in work on a new document.
Names of files are to be given without any extension.
MAIN FILE: The file which will be the input for running the TeX program.
This file is usually identical with the working file. This file has
automatically the extension .TEX .
WORKING FILE: The file to which the editor is directed. It is useful
to distinguish these files, if the working file is called in the
main file by the command \input (or similar). Your work is directed
to corrections resp. expansion of the working file.
For example the main file has the name MYBOOK and contains the
command \imput chapter5, and you are working with the file CHAPTER5 .
^(23, 123, 124)
Diskette:
=========
Enables to copy files from the disk to a diskette and vice versa. The
notion "Disk" is not entirely appropriate; more exactly it is the
current directory (i.e. normally the disk). If the current directory is
at a diskette, a collision can appear.
The configuration of this system consistently keeps the philosophy of
the user's directory used as current one. All by-products of the work
on a document (e.g. files with extensions .dvi, .log, .aux and so on)
are saved in the user's directory. If the user wishes to clean his
directory, he can use either the item "Clear" or "Shell".
The item "Diskette" copies only files with the extension .TEX
(the | main |{\1021} and the | working |{\1021} files.)
If you have open other source files (e.g. .mf), you have to copy them
using the item "Shell".
^(24)
Clear (dvi):
============
Deletes all "useless" files from the users current directory. More
exactly, it deletes all files with the name identical to the name of
the main or the working file which have one of the following
extensions:
.bak, .dvi, .log, .aux, .lq, .hp, .fx .
If you use other temporary files (.toc, .inx, and so on) you have to
delete them yourself.
^(25, 125, 26)
DOS:
====
It is possible to execute one DOS command without leaving the TeX
system.
Shell:
======
An external program is executed enabling comfortable operations over
files: listing and changing of directories, copying, deleting and many
more file operations. Control of this program is generally familiar (it
is e.g. Norton Commander or PCTools - in accordance to what is used at
your computer). After leaving this program the process returns into the
TeX system.
The program itself is specified by | environment variable |{\1163} SHELL.
^(27, 28, 29)
Editor
======
The editor is started without specification the edited file. The editor
asks for the name of the file that you wish to edit.
The editor itself is specified by | environment variable |{\1163} EDIT.
Calculation:
============
A simple external program "calculator" is started. You can simply write
the expression (for example 1+1) followed by the "Enter" key. The
program replies, for example: 1+1=2.
Quit:
=====
Terminating of the TeX system. The system can be left also by multiple
pressing the "Esc" key (depending on the depth of menu expansion). In
that case the system asks, whether you really wish to leave it.
In both cases, the command specified in | environment variable |{\1163} LASTCOM
is executed.
^(31) 1031
Edit:
=====
Editation of the | working file |{\1021} is started.
The way of control of the editor depends on which editor is used.
The editor itself is specified by | environment variable |{\1163} EDIT.
^(32) 1032
TeX:
====
The proper running of the TeX program.
The chosen format (Plain, LaTeX etc.) is used. You can choose the format
by the item "Options -> Format" before starting of the TeX program.
The TeX program is started. The input is the main file. The result is
the .dvi file, i.e the input for View or prints. In the .log file you
can find the report of the work of the TeX program. Related to the used
format, styles or macros, other output files can be generated. All
files are placed into the user's current directory.
^(33)
View:
=====
Viewer. It enables to examine the .dvi file (result of the TeX program)
on the screen. The control depends on the particular program.
Basic control keys for emTeX's DVISCR:
======================================
Q or ^C ...... quit program
arrows ........ move text on the screen
F resp. C .... smaller resp. larger step for arrows
PgDn / PgUp .. next / previous page
P number ..... go to specified page
O ............ return to the last viewed page
+ resp. - .... larger, resp. smaller text
R ............ switch on/off ruler
^U or U ...... switch between units on the ruler
S text ....... search text
^(34)
Main edit
=========
Editation of the | main file |{\1021} is started.
Log edit
========
Editation of the .LOG file is started.
The way of control of the editor depends on which editor is used.
The editor itself is specified by | environment variable |{\1163} EDIT.
^(35 235)
Spell:
======
Correction of typing errors in the working file. The English or the
Czech or Slovak dictionary is used in accordance with the sub-menu
selection.
The spell checker works with | working file |{\1021} only.
The additional parameters can be used in the | environment variable |{\1163}
SPELLOPT.
^(36)
Tie (vlnka):
============
The program is executed, which includes after every non syllabic
preposition a tie, preventing the line break at that place.
It is a purely Czech and Slovak speciality. English documents are not
to be submitted to it.
The program includes ties only into the | working file |{\1021}.
^(37)
Others:
=======
Next menu appears with following items:
DVI-Out : Converts CS-format in .DVI to standard CM format
DVIPS : Converts .DVI to PostScript
CSIndex : Generates Czech/Slovak indexes
Bib-TeX : Bibliography database
TeXCad : Easily drawing LaTeX pictures by mouse or arrows
^(38)
UserCommand:
============
The command specified in | environment variable |{\1163} USERCOM is executed.
User can set this command to his own particular needs.
For example the call of DVIPASTE program.
This command is simply accessible by pressing "U" key in TeX menu.
If you specify a batch call, you must write the word "call" before
the batch name!
In the user batch, you can operate with environment variables:
%MAIN% ... | main file |{\1021}
%WORK% ... | working file |{\1021} (both without extension).
^(39, 231, 232, 233) 1039
Experiment:
===========
Imagine that you are preparing an extensive document and you want
to debug a new table or other complicated TeX text. The permanent
"loop" [Running TeX -> Errors resp. View -> Editation] seems
to be tedious with the entire document. It is senseless to introduce a
new file (e.g. the name is the same and the extension is .try) and
to try this experimental text here. When you like the result, you
include it into the current document using block operations of the
editor.
Exactly this is possible due to the item Experiment.
The following menu appears:
Edit (try) .... editation of the file "name".try
TeX (try) .... running TeX to the file "name".try
View (try) .... viewer to the "name".dvi file
"name" means the name of the | main file |{\1021}. The final including of the
file "name".try into the document has to be done using block
operations of the editor manually.
This way you can save time of long TeX operations with the whole
document during marginal experiments.
^(30 141)
CStoCS
======
The program CStoCS converts | working file |{\1021} between various coding
schemes of nonstandard ASCII characters and standard TeX sequences
for these characters. It works with coding schemes:
Kamenicky, PC Latin 2, TeX-seq., ISO Latin 2, page 852, koi 8.
The menu offers only some conversion. If you need other one, you can
call the program from DOS line with appropriate parameters
(see to documentation of program CStoCS).
^(41)
Preview 180dpi, resp. Preview 300dpi, resp. Preview 240dpi
==========================================================
The viewer, which respects (in contrast to the plain | View |{\1032}) all
supplementary | options |{\1045}, which the user has prepared for the print
driver. This brings the result of the screen much nearer to the result
of printing. Some new problems may appear in this step, that would
cause wasting of paper in printer otherwise.
Menu offers three Preview items, each of them call viewer
which operates with specified fonts (dpi).
^(42, 43) 1042
Print - Matrix, resp. Print - Laser, resp. Print 9 Matrix:
===========================================================
The printing by the matrix resp. laser printer. If you have not
set any options, the print driver asks for options "on line".
Entering a blank line sets the printer in operation. In case of given
options (using the item | Edit options |{\1045}) printing starts immediately.
More exactly: the printing starts immediately if there is the file
"name".opt in the user's current directory. The print driver reads
options from this file. This file can be edited by the item
| Edit options |{\1045}. On the other hand, the item "Clear options" deletes
this file causing that the print driver will require options before
printing.
Make .lq file, resp. Make .hp file, resp. Make .fx file:
========================================================
Creates the file "name".lq/.fx resp. "mane".hp for a future use by a
matrix resp. laser printer. These files are usually quite extensive
and they are senseful only for transfer to computers with the printer
but without TeX installation.
^(45, 46) 1045
Edit - options resp. Clear options:
=====================================
Editing resp. deleting of print options - see | Print help |{\1042}.
The list of possible options and the way of their activating depends on
drivers involved.
^(52, 53, 54)
Edit (MF):
==========
Editing is started for the "name".mf file ("name" is the name of the
MF file, see the | Parameters |{\1051} item).
METAFONT:
=========
Running the METAFONT program depending on the command line
specified in | Parameters |{\1051} item.
Convert:
=======
Running the transfer program (for instance to .pk-format) of fonts
specified in | Parameters |{\1051} item.
^(51 150 151 152) 1051
Parameters:
===========
A window appears where you can edit the line with the METAFONT
command, convertor command and MF file.
1. MF file (without extension) is name of file to be edited
by "Edit-mf" item. It is the value of MF environment variable.
2. METAFONT parameters. Most frequent parameters are as follows:
&plain ......... calls the METAFONT format defined in METAFONTbook
&cm ............ format for Computer Modern fonts
\mode=proof .... making the font for a test
\mode=lqlores .. low resolution font for matrix printer (180dpi)
\mode=hplaser .. high resolution font for laser printer (300dpi)
mag=<n> ........ the result will be <n> times enlarged
input <name> ... the input file will be <name>.mf
3. In the last line of the window, the name of convertor program and
the name of the input file and others parameters can be given. In
case of mag=1 and \mode=lqlores, the input file has the extension
".180", and in case of \mode=hplaser, the extension is ".300" .
In case you use nonstandard magnifications or nonstandard printers,
you have to find out the extension of the input file at first.
^(56, 57, 58)
Edit (mp):
===========
Starts the editor for the file "name".mp (abbr. METAFONT--picture). In
this file, the user includes the font just METAFONTed into TeX. E.g. if
he prepares figures, he can try to include all labels and create a
complete figure here. When he is satisfied with the result (checking
through "View-mp"), he include the figure into the current document
using block operations of the editor.
TeX (mp):
==========
Starts the TeX program with the corresponding format. The input is the
file "name".mft
View (mp):
===========
Viewer of TeX output (.dvi file)
^(61, 161) 1061
Format:
=======
You can choose some format from menu. The selection influences
the appearance of TeX item and the TeX run.
If some format is not installed at this computer, the system reports
a message after you want to run the TeX program.
^(62 162) 1062
TeX-vers:
=========
You can select between two "types" of emTeX program:
tex.exe ...... it run at XT computers but a noticeable
limitations are present
tex386.exe ... it run at 386-computers only and use hi-memory
if present.
^1599
F3FILE ... The file name for F3 editing
=======================================|^|{1500}
So called "hot keys" F3 call the editor from all states of
menu system. You can set the file name for this editing
in environment variable F3FILE including disk name, path and
extension. For example, you want to edit repeatedly the file
from other directory or with nonstandard extension.
^1501
EDIT .... The editor call
=========================|^|{1500}
You can set the editor program here. If the batch call is set,
you must write the word "call" before the file name of batch.
Every user can work with his favorite editor.
A parameter (file name for editing) is substituted automatically
in accordance the item type. The value of EDITPAR is added. It can
be set after unsuccessful run of TeX by ERRCOM command and influences
the editor start after error in TeX run. For example editor starts
with two windows (.TEX and .LOG window) in such case and points
the place of error. The value of EDITPAR is removed after first
editor call. So, next editor call starts "normally".
^1502
EMTEXED .... the editor call after "e" key in TeX
=================================================|^|{1500}
This is the emTeX environment variable. If TeX (METAFONT)
prompts the "?" character, you can enter the "e". Then TeX
terminates and editor specified here is called. You must write
parameters for this editor. The %1, %2 and %3 is substituted as
following:
%1 ... the line number with error
%2 ... the source file with error (including path)
%3 ... the .LOG file (including path)
For example, if you use QEDIT, you can write some similar as:
EMTEXED: c:\editors\qedit %2 %3 -n%1
Norton editor can be specified by the following way.
EMTEXED: c:\editors\ne +%1 %2
^1503
SHELL .... The shell call (file manager, F6 key)
================================================|^|{1500}
You can specify a program which is called after F6 hot key
pressing. The menu system has no possibilities with file
handling and therefore some file manager program is recommended
here. For example Norton Commander, XTree, PCTools etc.
Every user can work with his favorite file manager program.
If the batch call is set, you must write the word "call" before
the file name of batch.
^1504
EMTEXOPT .... TeX parameters
============================|^|{1500}
/e ... \errorstopmode
/s ... \scrollmode
/n ... \nonstopmode
/b ... \batchmode
others parameters ... see the documentation TEXWARE.DOC

// ... interactive mode of parameters setting
/? resp. /?? ... shows basic resp. all parameters
/ou# ... default measure unit on ruler
/oi- ... black on white (default) /oi+ ... white on black
/hx# /hy# ... home place of text.
/h# /w# ..... The height and width of sheet. Default: A4 format
/o# ......... Default scaling (example /o2 : one to 2x2 pixels)
The number must be integer
Thousands of others parameters are documented in DVIDRV.DOC .
This parameters influence behavior of View but not Preview call.
^1506
SPELLOPT .... SPELL checker parameters
======================================|^|{1500}
@K ... Kamenickych code of nonstandard ASCII character (default)
@L ... PC Latin 2 code
@C ... CSKOI 8 code
The character "#" presented ... Checking the TeX sequences too
$<file> ... name of working dictionary (including path)
!<file> ... output file if different from input
+ ... acoustic signalization of errors
%<number> ... checking from <number>-th line only
Example SPELLOPT: # %20 $d:\dict\mydict.ces
-------
^1507
ERRCOM .... The command after error in TeX run
==============================================|^|{1500}
You can write the batch call, which is executed after the unsuccessful
TeX (METAFONT) run. This auxiliary batch can set the EDITPAR
environment variable which influences the editor start.
If the batch call is set, you must write the word "call" before
the file name of batch.
^1508 1509
USERCOM .... The command executed by UserCom item
=================================================|^|{1500}
You can find the item UserCommand in the submenu TeX. This item
executes the command you specify here.
Every user can set his own application here.
If the batch call is set, you must write the word "call" before
the file name of batch.
