<!--l. 10-->

<p class="noindent">When you are reading a document in preview and
see something to change, it is convenient to go immediately to the
corresponding place in the source. To do that, hold down
<span class="keystroke">Ctrl</span> (Mac OS X: <span class=
"keystroke"><img src="images/MacCmdKey.png" alt="pict" /></span>)
and click at the appropriate place in the preview window; the
cursor will move and highlight the corresponding location in the
source window. The same is true in the other direction:
<span class="keystroke">Ctrl</span> <img src="images/LMB.png" alt=
"pict" /> in the source will highlight the same line in the preview
window.<span class="footnote-mark"><a href=
"index32.html#fn1x6"><sup class=

<p class="indent"></p>

<div class="OSspecific">
<div class="OSspecificLogo OSWindows"></div>Here a remark for users
under Windows: this only works if <b>all</b> the names for
folders/files/…do <b>not</b> have accented characters. If, for
example, your document is in <tt>C:\Documents and
Settings\Propriétaire\My Documents\thesis</tt> it will not work
because of the <span class="obeylines-h verb ec-lmtt-12">é</span>
in <tt>Propriétaire</tt>!

<h3 class="sectionHead"><span class="titlemark">5.2</span> <a id=
"x31-320005.2" name="x31-320005.2"></a>Special comment strings</h3>
<!--l. 20-->

<p class="noindent">Special comments, at the very beginning of the
files, can be used to manage two other aspects of the compilation. 
<!--l. 22--></p>

<p class="indent">By default, T<sub>E</sub>Xworks uses the “utf-8”
encoding<a id="dx31-32001" name="dx31-32001"></a> for saving files,
but some files could be saved in another encoding. Common ones are
“latin1”<a id="dx31-32002" name="dx31-32002"></a>, which is the
dominant encoding on Windows when using western languages, and
“Apple Roman” which is dominant on Mac OS. <!--l. 24--></p>

<p class="indent">To set a different encoding<a id="dx31-32003"
name="dx31-32003"></a> for a specific file one can put the
following at the beginning of that file:<a id="dx31-32004" name=
"dx31-32004"></a></p>

<div class="fancyvrb" id="fancyvrb10">
<a id="x31-32006r1" name="x31-32006r1"></a><span class=
"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;</span><span class=
"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;%</span><span class=
"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;!TeX</span><span class=

"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;=</span><span class=
"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;latin1</span>
</div><!--l. 29-->

<p class="indent">If we want to compile a file with another
programme<a id="dx31-32007" name="dx31-32007"></a> than the default
T<sub>E</sub>X or L<sup>A</sup>T<sub>E</sub>X, we put at the
beginning of the file: <a id="dx31-32008" name=
"dx31-32008"></a></p>

<div class="fancyvrb" id="fancyvrb11">
<a id="x31-32010r1" name="x31-32010r1"></a><span class=

"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;&lt;the_programme&gt;</span>
</div><!--l. 34-->

<p class="noindent">for example:</p>

<div class="fancyvrb" id="fancyvrb12">
<a id="x31-32012r1" name="x31-32012r1"></a><span class=
"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;</span><span class=
"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;%</span><span class=
"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;!TeX</span><span class=

"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;=</span><span class=
"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;xelatex</span>
</div><!--l. 39-->

<p class="indent">Pay attention to this last instruction. You have
to use the name of the programme here which should be used for the
whole project, as the first encountered programme when starting
typesetting is used (which is the one from the sub-document you are
in). T<sub>E</sub>Xworks will use that programme, even if another
name appears in the main document! <!--l. 41--></p>

<p class="indent">When opening a document which contains a
<span class="obeylines-h verb"><span class=
"ec-lmtt-12">%</span><span class=
"ec-lmtt-12">&nbsp;!TeX</span><span class=
"ec-lmtt-12">&nbsp;program</span></span> line, the specified
programme will become the one to use and its name will appear in
the drop down menu in the toolbar; you can, however, override this
by selecting a different one from the drop down list, if you want. 
<!--l. 44--></p>

<p class="indent">In addition, you can set the spell checking
language by a similar comment line: <a id="dx31-32013" name=
"dx31-32013"></a></p>

<div class="fancyvrb" id="fancyvrb13">
<a id="x31-32015r1" name="x31-32015r1"></a><span class=
"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;</span><span class=

"ec-lmtt-10x-x-109">&nbsp;&lt;language_code&gt;</span>
</div><!--l. 49-->

<p class="noindent">The language codes available on your system are
listed in parentheses in <em class="c10">Edit</em> <span class=

<p class="indent">As <span class="ec-lmro-12">indent</span> only
indents the first part of very long (wrapped) lines, this is not
very satisfactory in some cases. But one can ask
T<sub>E</sub>Xworks to split a long line (longer than the width of
the editing window) into short ones adding a hard coded line feed.

<p class="noindent">When a document is becoming long and you want
to move to a specific place (a chapter, a section, a subsection,
…)<a id="dx31-34001" name="dx31-34001"></a> you normally need to
scroll the editing window to find the desired location, or use the
Find dialog if you remember a keyword in the chapter’s title. 
<!--l. 83--></p>

<p class="indent">To the same end, though a lot more comfortable,
you can also use the structural information in the document to
navigate the source: the menu item <em class=
"c10">Window</em><span class="lmsy-10x-x-120">→</span><em class=
"c10">Show</em><span class="lmsy-10x-x-120">→</span><em class=

T<sub>E</sub>Xworks. Clicking on an item in the panel moves the
cursor to the corresponding part in the source. That panel, like
any other, can be resized by dragging its border. <!--l. 85--></p>

<p class="indent">The same action is possible in the PDF window
from <em class="c10">Window</em><span class=

<p class="noindent">By default, the editor/source window opens on
the left and the preview one on the right (when the corresponding

<!--l. 91--></p>

<p class="indent">You can change the position of the windows in the
<em class="c10">Window</em> menu. <span class=

always possible to resize and move the windows manually, of course.

folder</h3><a id="dx31-36001" name="dx31-36001"></a> <!--l. 98-->

<p class="noindent">Very soon when one uses
(L<sup>A</sup>)T<sub>E</sub>X, one discovers that the working
folder is cluttered by many files which have the name of the source
file but different extensions: <span class="path">.aux</span>,
<span class="path">.log</span>, <span class="path">.toc</span>,
<span class="path">.lof</span>, <span class="path">.lot</span>,
<span class="path">.bbl</span>, … <!--l. 100--></p>

<p class="indent">All these are files needed by
(L<sup>A</sup>)T<sub>E</sub>X to be able to create the table of
contents, lists of figures/tables, the bibliography, the cross
references and, also very importantly, to keep track of what it did
(in the <span class="path">.log</span> file). <!--l. 102--></p>

<p class="indent">Apart from the external files, images, pictures,
…, the only files required are the <span class="path">.tex</span>
files, the sources of the document. One can erase all the others.
Sometimes, this is even necessary when
(L<sup>A</sup>)T<sub>E</sub>X gets stuck after an error. 
<!--l. 104--></p>

<p class="indent">This can be done using a T<sub>E</sub>Xworks
command from the <em class="c10">File</em> menu: <span class=
"lmsy-10x-x-120">→</span><em class="c10">Remove Aux files
…</em><a id="dx31-36002" name="dx31-36002"></a>. <!--l. 106--></p>

<p class="indent">When you use this command, a dialog box opens in
which you can check/uncheck the files you want to
remove.<span class="footnote-mark"><a href=
"index34.html#fn3x6"><sup class=
"textsuperscript">3</sup></a></span><a id="x31-36003f3" name=
"x31-36003f3"></a> The dialog box will only list files that
actually exist in the foler; if you removed all these auxiliary
files before, you get a message box saying that there is no file to
remove at the moment. <!--l. 108--></p>

<p class="indent">The list of auxilliary files which are taken into
account is defined in the file <span class=
"path">texworks-config.txt</span><a id="dx31-36004" name=
"dx31-36004"></a> in the <span class="path">configuration</span>
folder of the T<sub>E</sub>Xworks resources folder. You could add
some if required.</p>

<h3 class="sectionHead"><span class="titlemark">5.7</span> <a id=
"x31-370005.7" name="x31-370005.7"></a>Changing the
configuration</h3><!--l. 112-->

<p class="noindent">We have seen in section <a href=
"Installation.html#x7-40002">2
<!--tex4ht:ref: chap.installation --></a> (on page <a href=
"Installation.html#x7-40002">11
<!--tex4ht:ref: chap.installation --></a>) that the first time you
use T<sub>E</sub>Xworks, it creates a resource folder and also that
it saves default preferences. <!--l. 114--></p>

<p class="indent">It is possible to define a personal place where
one wants the resource folder and the preferences. This can be
handy when one wants a portable system (e.g., on an USB stick) or
when one wants to easily access the templates or completion folders
for modifications. <!--l. 116--></p>

<p class="indent">For this, create a file <span class=
"path">texworks-setup.ini</span><a id="dx31-37001" name=
"dx31-37001"></a> in the programme folder in which you specify the
path to the folder containing the completion, configuration,
dictionaries,…folders and the configuration file (<span class=
"path">texworks.ini</span><a id="dx31-37002" name=
"dx31-37002"></a>); there will be two lines:</p>

"obeylines-h verb ec-lmtt-12">libpath</span><a id="dx31-37008"
name="dx31-37008"></a> for the necessary folders. Here,
<span class="path">TW_conf</span> would replace the resource folder
<span class="path">TeXworks</span>. Note that the referenced folder
(here <span class="path">TW_conf</span>) should exist—it will not
be created—, and that the <span class=
"obeylines-h verb ec-lmtt-12">/</span> is used even on Windows
(instead of the common <span class=
"obeylines-h verb ec-lmtt-12">\</span>). <!--l. 124--></p>

<p class="indent">If one wants to put the resource folder in the
programme folder as a subfolder, one can use an instruction like
<span class=
"obeylines-h verb ec-lmtt-12">inipath=./TW_conf/</span>; all
relative paths are taken to be relatve to the T<sub>E</sub>Xworks
programme folder (on Mac OS X, the folder containing the app
package is used). <!--l. 126--></p>

<p class="indent">One can also add a line<a id="dx31-37009" name=
