HI,
This script runs TexDoc using a package name highlighted in the Tw editor.
This will either show package help or other choices if available.
Download From: http://code.google.com/p/texworks/issues/detail?id=261#c53
If you are using and have MiKTeXes automatic package loading turned
on, and are using a new package - compile your Tw document at least
once before using this script if you want help for that package.
Shortcut: Alt+T & Alt+D
NEED: You'll have to turn on Edit.Preferences/Scripts System commands
for this to work read warning there.
Install: anywhere in your script folder tree,
then Tw Menu Scripts / Scripting TeXworks/ Reload Script List
USAGE: double click on a package name (select name) in Tw editor and
use this short cut (above)
You may need to associate Yap (or other) with .dvi files. On MikTex
Yap.exe is in the
<MiTeX Location>\miktex\bin folder
I origianlly did this as a Lua script in 2009-09-19
This one uses a different shortcut.
