[Vim-latex-devel] latexSuite - BETA release

[Mikolaj M. <mi...@wp...>]

Hello,

I have prepared "BETA" release of latexSuite. Here is ChangeLog (new
feature in lS ;) :

After 8 May 2003

	Features
	* texviewer.vim:
		Look for bibfiles in $BIBINPUTS env variable (Soren Debois)
	* envmacros.vim:
		Check in package variables for templates for environments inserted
		from line with <F5> (MM)
	* packages/amsmath:
		Templates for alignat and alignat* envs in amsmath package file (MM)
	* compiler.vim:
		Added support for regular viewing and forward searching for kdvi (KDE
		viewer of .dvi files) (MM)
	* mathmacros.vim, main.vim, texrc, latex-suite.txt:
		Added utf-8 menus for math (MM)
	* ChangeLog:
		Add ChangeLog file in ftplugin/latex-suite directory (MM)
	* wizardfuncs.vim, latex-suite.txt:
		Tshortcuts - new command show various shortcuts (MM)
	* latex-suite.txt:
		More cross-references with main Vim help, corrected mispells (MM)
	* texmenuconf.vim:
		Show value of <mapleader> in General menu instead of hardcoded \ (it
		caused confusion) (MM)

	Bugfixes
	* compiler.vim:
		Compile file with current file expansion, not always .tex file (MM)
	* texviewer.vim:
		Check if s:type exists in UpdateViewerWindow (MM)

Few comments:

1.
Tshortcuts produces annoying bug: Trailing characters - I don't know what
causes this message (Vim6.2f). But command itself works properly.
2.
Please check how utf-8 menus work for you: especially various systems.
For me it works nice (gtk2 there is some bugs in font - I checked codes
of chars against tables from unicode.org). If you find more automated
way to load them it would be great
3.
Forward searching in kdvi not always works properly - it is kdvi bug and
was communicated to maintainer of kdvi

Here it is:
http://skawina.eu.org/mikolaj/latexSuite20030529.tar.gz

(ca. 190kB, only tar.gz - under MS-Windows you can unpack this archive)

Enjoy :)

It is removable. I am doing this tarballs from my working directory and
I have there some garbage. I tried to make it clean but without success
I see. Sorry.

<G>

miko, may i (if i'm not asking too much) request that, if possible, on future 
occasions, if you modify/updted just a few of the files in VLS, could you plz 
put up only the modified file(s) for download ?

i'm on a very slow (and expensive) dialup line and can't afford to download 
the entire thing repeatedly... atleast not every 2 days :)

hey, *hit happens... don't feel bad about giving away the bleeding edge 
versions of VLS :)

TIA and warm regards

The best solution for you will be CVS.
Full archives are also for testing if fundamental things weren't broken
(eg dir structure).

Ha. In this case it was gargabe from previous make command. It shouldn't
happen again.

[Vim-latex-devel] bug report for: latexSuite20030531

[Animesh N N. <an...@gm...>]

Hi Mikolaj,

before all else, the startup problem is fixed :)

now for the latest bug report...

bug report:

1]
i open myfile.tex , change o/p type to .pdf and start a compile with \ll 
...and this happens:

----- err msg --------
|| I can't find file `myfile.tex.tex'. myfile.tex.tex 
|| Emergency stop.
----- err msg --------

i open myfile.ltx , change o/p type to .pdf and start a compile with \ll 
...and this happens:

----- err msg --------
|| I can't find file `myfile.ltx.tex'. myfile.ltx.tex 
|| Emergency stop.
----- err msg --------

...and a similar error with myfile.latex.

solution:

file: $HOME/.vim/ftplugin/latex-suite/texrc
line # 92 reads:

TexLet g:Tex_CompileRule_pdf = 'pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode $*.tex'

remove the ".tex" frm the end of the file, like this :)

TexLet g:Tex_CompileRule_pdf = 'pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode $*'

...and the above problem is solved :)
