Currently I add an entry in the auto-completion list so I'll type "-TAB to<br>
get a smart quote.<br>
<br>
I have another question: I notice that in the tw-latex.txt file, most<br>
entries ends with some characters that shows up in my copy of TeXworks as<br>
small circle (like the one produced by \bullet). I notice that for some<br>
environments, for example tabular, this will add an extra line (i.e., let's<br>
say I'm going to make a table with 4 rows. If I use the auto-completion,<br>
I'll end up with a table with 5 rows). Is this intentional? I see this both<br>
in Windows and Ubuntu.<br>

If I write<br>
<br>
btab<br>
<br>
and press TAB I get<br>
<br>
\begin{tabular}{}<br>
•<br>
\end{tabular}•<br>
<br>
with the cursor (point) between the empty braces, ready to enter a column specifier. Once that is done I can press Opt-TAB on the Mac and the cursor jumps and selects the bullet, ready to enter a row (since the bullet is selected I just have to start typing to delete the bullet). After I'm done adding rows I type Opt-TAB and the bullet at the end of the environment gets selected so typing a Return removes that bullet and goes to the next line. If I skip over a bullet I can select it backwards by adding the Shift key to the shortcut, Shift-Opt-TAB. On Windows (and Linux?) I'd guess the keyboard shortcut is Alt-TAB and Shift-Alt-TAB (Opt on the Mac is roughly equivalent to Alt) but it seems the Alt-TAB (and Shift-Alt-TAB) get intercepted by the Windows OS so I have no idea what the shortcuts are there.<br>

Good Luck,<br>
