[texworks] SCRIPTING: Autocompletion based on the current file.

[Paul A Norman]

Dear Henrik,

I thought I had missed something earlier, it looks like when you send
email via nfit.au.dk attached .js are being removed. I believe the
same may have happened on date 30 December 2010 23:07

I was previously commenting on your first one - and got it from the
Issues tracker 26 December 2010.

You might be able to zip up  your file.js first and your mail server
might let that pass through?

Regards,

Paul
