LaTeXYZ

This package is NOT a replacement of any LaTeX package. It is meant to be used together with LaTeXTools (or similar package) and to improve the typing experience with Sublime Text by providing a bunch of keybinds and helper functions.

Installation

Package Control.

Auto match pairs

The following auto paring is activated when auto_match_enabled is true.

When auto_create_fields is set true, these commands will create fields. The cursor will move to next field when pressing tab. If there is any selected text, auto matching pair wraps the selection.

• Auto pairing \(\), \[\] and \{\}.

• Single and double quotation marks are replaced by the LaTeX quotation pairs, e.g., 'foo' becomes `foo' and "foo" becomes ``foo''. (Disabled by setting use_latex_quotes to false)

• In math environment,

(,(	\left(\right)
[,[	\left[\right]
\,{,{	\left\{\right\}
\,|	||
\,|,|	\left|\right|
\,<	\langle \rangle
\,<,<	\left\langle \right\rangle

Since LaTeXYZ uses the blacktick ` in various keybindings

• The ` to `' auto completion in LaTeXTools is disabled by default.

Auto complete math commands

Math commands are only valid in math environment, eg, $$, \[\] or \begin{equation}, \end{equation}. These Math keybinds are similar to Emacs's Auc-Tex and Vim's vim-latex-suite (not exactly the same).

When auto_create_fields is set true, these commands will create fields. The cursor will move to next field when pressing tab.

Backslash triggered completions

It provides a list of commands to auto complete when \ is triggered.

However, it is now recommended to turn this off and use cwl support of LaTeXTools.

Others

Deprecations

The wraping commands C+l, e and C+l, c are deprecated. Users can add the following to their user settings.

// Wrap selected text in environment
{ "keys": ["ctrl+l","e"], "command": "insert_snippet", "args": {"contents": "\\begin{${1:env}}\n$SELECTION$0\n\\end{$1}"}, "context":
    [
        {"key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": "text.tex.latex"}
    ]
},

// Wrap selected text in command
{ "keys": ["ctrl+l","c"], "command": "insert_snippet", "args": {"contents": "\\\\${0:cmd}{$SELECTION}"}, "context":
    [
        {"key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": "text.tex.latex"}
    ]
}

Why LaTeXYZ?

Just to make sure that it is loaded after LaTeXTools.
