[texworks] Auto-completion - Document Jumps

[Paul A Norman]

Dear Alain,

Good to see you on the list lately - been back in Africa at all?

Python is not yet a strength of mine--on a long to do list, I really
like the look of it :)

Head looks great...

# TeXworksScript
# Title:  Make Bullet
# Description: Inserts a bullet for autocompletion
# Author:  Paul Norman
# Version: 0.1
# Date: 2011-06-15
# Script-Type: standalone
# Context: TeXDocument
# Shortcut: Alt+M, Alt+B

TW.target.insertText(u"\u2022")

Indentation and spacing is everything in Python from what I recall.
This works, note the u in-front of the quote mark for Python encoding
needs here.

Here is a link to a script for writing new scripts :) helps get the
head consistently in order.

re the QtScript version ...

Have you got Alt+M, Alt+B  assigned to any other Script at all?

Does the Script appear in Script manager? Or on the Script menu?

.js is  one of the standard QtScript  extensions.

Or did I misunderstand and you just want to do it in python anyway?

The header look right

Python is not my strength in scripting but ...

For python try this, note the leading u

 TW.target.insertText(u"\u2022")

or perhaps

  mybullet = str(u"\u2022")

 TW.target.insertText(mybullet)
