Hi!
I did translate all my Python scripts to Lua.
I had a problem to insert the bullet (the one used for
autocompletion).
Under Lua it is created with "\226\128\162" in a string.
For example the following code, to create a figure
environment from an existing text for the caption, allows to
move with Ctrl+Tab or Ctrl+Shift+Tab to the positions to
fill in.
========================
--[[TeXworksScript
Title: i&mage \figure
Description: Encloses the current selection in a picture
environment
Author: Alain Delmotte from Stefan Löffler & Jonathan Kew

Script-Type: standalone
Context: TeXDocument
]]
txt = TW.target.selection
if (txt == nil) then txt = "" end
TW.target.insertText("\\begin{figure}[ht]\\centering\n\\includegraphics[width=\226\128\162cm]{\226\128\162}\n\\caption{"
.. txt .. "}\n\\label{\226\128\162}\n\\end{figure}\n")
TW.target.selectRange(TW.target.selectionStart -
string.len(txt) - 1, string.len(txt))
=======================
Remark the "\n" to insert a line feed as it looks like the
string to be created should be in the same line (no CRLF in
the middle)
Also on the second line the & is to create an accelerator,
but I haven't yet succeeded to use it with Windows 7!!!
Regards,
Alain
