Thank you very much. I have two issues here :

 

1. I modifed 

bequ:=\begin{equation}#RET##INS##RET#\end{equation}•

into

bequ:=\begin{equation}#RET#test#INS##RET#\end{equation}•

 

after restarting the texworks, I tried to complete \begin{equa

with Tab, but still I got 

 

\begin{equation}

cursor

\end{equation}•

 

what I added the word "test" did not appear

 

2. Tab+Ctrl seems not work on my machine, and I tried on other machine with Windows XP

neither of them work, instead I found the combination Tab+Ctrl can only realize the same function

as Tab on these machines. The combination Tab + Ctrl works fine on my linux.

 

Sorry to bother you with these questions, Thank you.
