202 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} is a specialized package for support of labels, | |
203 | references, citations, and the index in LaTeX. @b{Ref@TeX{}} wraps | |
204 | itself round 4 LaTeX macros: @code{\label}, @code{\ref}, @code{\cite}, | |
205 | and @code{\index}. Using these macros usually requires looking up | |
206 | different parts of the document and searching through BibTeX database | |
207 | files. @b{Ref@TeX{}} automates these time--consuming tasks almost | |
208 | entirely. It also provides functions to display the structure of a | |
cd19b06c | 209 | document and to move around in this structure quickly. |

cd19b06c CD |
230 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} is bundled and pre--installed with Emacs since version |
231 | 20.2. It was also bundled and pre--installed with XEmacs 19.16--20.x. | |
232 | XEmacs 21.x users want to install the corresponding plug-in package | |
233 | which is available from the @value{XEMACSFTP}. See the XEmacs 21.x | |
234 | documentation on package installation for details. | |

247 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} needs to access all files which are part of a multifile | |
248 | document, and the BibTeX database files requested by the | |
249 | @code{\bibliography} command. To find these files, @b{Ref@TeX{}} will | |
250 | require a search path, i.e. a list of directories to check. Normally | |
251 | this list is stored in the environment variables @code{TEXINPUTS} and | |
252 | @code{BIBINPUTS} which are also used by @b{Ref@TeX{}}. However, on some | |
253 | systems these variables do not contain the full search path. If | |
254 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} does not work for you because it cannot find some files, | |
255 | read @ref{Finding Files}. | |

289 | @b{Labels and References}@* @b{Ref@TeX{}} helps to create unique labels | |
290 | and to find the correct key for references quickly. It distinguishes | |
291 | labels for different environments, knows about all standard | |
292 | environments (and many others), and can be configured to recognize any | |
293 | additional labeled environments you have defined yourself (variable | |
cd19b06c | 294 | @code{reftex-label-alist}). |

323 | @b{Citations}@* | |
324 | Typing @kbd{C-c [} (@code{reftex-citation}) will let you specify a | |
325 | regular expression to search in current BibTeX database files (as | |
326 | specified in the @code{\bibliography} command) and pull out a list of | |
327 | matches for you to choose from. The list is @emph{formatted} and | |
328 | sorted. The selected article is referenced as @samp{\cite@{@var{key}@}} | |
329 | (see the variable @code{reftex-cite-format} if you want to insert | |
cd19b06c | 330 | different macros). |
6bf7aab6 DL |
331 | |
332 | @item | |
333 | @b{Index Support}@* | |
334 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} helps to enter index entries. It also compiles all | |
335 | entries into an alphabetically sorted @file{*Index*} buffer which you | |
336 | can use to check and edit the entries. @b{Ref@TeX{}} knows about the | |
337 | standard index macros and can be configured to recognize any additional | |
338 | macros you have defined (@code{reftex-index-macros}). Multiple indices | |
cd19b06c | 339 | are supported. |

d4e1eea3 CD |
344 | To index the current selection or the word at point, type @kbd{C-c /} |
345 | (@code{reftex-index-selection-or-word}). The default macro | |
346 | @code{reftex-index-default-macro} will be used. For a more complex entry | |
347 | type @kbd{C-c <} (@code{reftex-index}), select any of the index macros | |
cd19b06c | 348 | and enter the arguments with completion. |
d4e1eea3 CD |
349 | |
350 | @item | |
351 | @b{The Index Phrases File (Delayed Indexing)}@* | |
352 | Type @kbd{C-c \} (@code{reftex-index-phrase-selection-or-word}) to add | |
353 | the current word or selection to a special @emph{index phrase file}. | |
354 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} can later search the document for occurrences of these | |
cd19b06c | 355 | phrases and let you interactively index the matches. |
d4e1eea3 CD |
356 | |
357 | @item | |
358 | @b{Displaying and Editing the Index}@* | |
359 | To display the compiled index in a special buffer, type @kbd{C-c >} | |
360 | (@code{reftex-display-index}). From that buffer you can check and edit | |
cd19b06c | 361 | all entries. |
6bf7aab6 DL |

363 | ||
364 | @page | |
365 | @item @b{Viewing Cross-References}@* | |
366 | When point is on the @var{key} argument of a cross--referencing macro | |
367 | (@code{\label}, @code{\ref}, @code{\cite}, @code{\bibitem}, | |
368 | @code{\index}, and variations) or inside a BibTeX database entry, you | |
369 | can press @kbd{C-c &} (@code{reftex-view-crossref}) to display | |
370 | corresponding locations in the document and associated BibTeX database | |
cd19b06c | 371 | files. @* |
d4e1eea3 CD |
372 | When the enclosing macro is @code{\cite} or @code{\ref} and no other |
373 | message occupies the echo area, information about the citation or label | |
cd19b06c | 374 | will automatically be displayed in the echo area. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
375 | |
376 | @item | |
377 | @b{Multifile Documents}@* | |
378 | Multifile Documents are fully supported. The included files must have a | |
379 | file variable @code{TeX-master} or @code{tex-main-file} pointing to the | |
380 | master file. @b{Ref@TeX{}} provides cross-referencing information from | |
381 | all parts of the document, and across document borders | |
cd19b06c | 382 | (@file{xr.sty}). |
6bf7aab6 DL |
383 | |
384 | @item | |
385 | @b{Document Parsing}@* @b{Ref@TeX{}} needs to parse the document in | |
386 | order to find labels and other information. It does it automatically | |
387 | once and updates its list internally when @code{reftex-label} and | |
388 | @code{reftex-index} are used. To enforce reparsing, call any of the | |
389 | commands described above with a raw @kbd{C-u} prefix, or press the | |
390 | @kbd{r} key in the label selection buffer, the table of contents | |
cd19b06c | 391 | buffer, or the index buffer. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
392 | |
393 | @item | |
394 | @b{AUCTeX} @* If your major LaTeX mode is AUCTeX, @b{Ref@TeX{}} can | |
395 | cooperate with it (see variable @code{reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX}). AUCTeX | |
396 | contains style files which trigger appropriate settings in | |
397 | @b{Ref@TeX{}}, so that for many of the popular LaTeX packages no | |
cd19b06c | 398 | additional customizations will be necessary. |

536 | promotion/demotion it may be necessary to change a few labels from | |
537 | @samp{sec:xyz} to @samp{cha:xyz} or vice versa. This command can be | |
538 | used to do this - it launches a query replace to rename the definition | |

686 | LaTeX provides a powerful mechanism to deal with cross--references in a | |
687 | document. When writing a document, any part of it can be marked with a | |
688 | label, like @samp{\label@{mark@}}. LaTeX records the current value of a | |
689 | certain counter when a label is defined. Later references to this label | |
690 | (like @samp{\ref@{mark@}}) will produce the recorded value of the | |
cd19b06c | 691 | counter. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
692 | |
693 | Labels can be used to mark sections, figures, tables, equations, | |
694 | footnotes, items in enumerate lists etc. LaTeX is context sensitive in | |
695 | doing this: A label defined in a figure environment automatically | |
cd19b06c | 696 | records the figure counter, not the section counter. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
697 | |
698 | Several different environments can share a common counter and therefore | |
699 | a common label category. E.g. labels in both @code{equation} and | |
700 | @code{eqnarray} environments record the value of the same counter - the | |
cd19b06c | 701 | equation counter. |

722 | In order to create a label in a LaTeX document, press @kbd{C-c (} | |
723 | (@code{reftex-label}). Just like LaTeX, @b{Ref@TeX{}} is context sensitive | |
724 | and will figure out the environment it currently is in and adapt the | |
725 | label to that environment. A label usually consists of a short prefix | |
726 | indicating the type of the label and a unique mark. @b{Ref@TeX{}} has | |
cd19b06c | 727 | 3 different modes to create this mark. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
728 | |
729 | @enumerate | |
730 | @item | |
731 | @vindex reftex-translate-to-ascii-function | |

733 | @vindex reftex-label-illegal-re | |
734 | @vindex reftex-abbrev-parameters | |
735 | A label can be derived from context. This means, @b{Ref@TeX{}} takes | |
736 | the context of the label definition and constructs a label from | |
737 | that@footnote{Note that the context may contain constructs which are | |
ce7c7522 | 738 | invalid in labels. @b{Ref@TeX{}} will therefore strip the accent from |
6bf7aab6 | 739 | accented Latin-1 characters and remove everything else which is not |
2cbd16b9 | 740 | valid in labels. This mechanism is safe, but may not be satisfactory |
6bf7aab6 DL |
741 | for non-western languages. Check the following variables if you need to |
742 | change things: @code{reftex-translate-to-ascii-function}, | |
743 | @code{reftex-derive-label-parameters}, @code{reftex-label-illegal-re}, | |
744 | @code{reftex-abbrev-parameters}.}. This works best for section labels, | |
745 | where the section heading is used to construct a label. In fact, | |
746 | @b{Ref@TeX{}}'s default settings use this method only for section | |
747 | labels. You will be asked to confirm the derived label, or edit | |
cd19b06c | 748 | it. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
749 | |
750 | @item | |
751 | We may also use a simple unique number to identify a label. This is | |
752 | mostly useful for labels where it is difficult to come up with a very | |
753 | good descriptive name. @b{Ref@TeX{}}'s default settings use this method | |
754 | for equations, enumerate items and footnotes. The author of @b{Ref@TeX{}} | |
755 | tends to write documents with many equations and finds it impossible | |
756 | to come up with good names for each of them. These simple labels are | |
757 | inserted without query, and are therefore very fast. Good descriptive | |
758 | names are not really necessary as @b{Ref@TeX{}} will provide context to | |
cd19b06c | 759 | reference a label (@pxref{Referencing Labels}). |
6bf7aab6 DL |
760 | |
761 | @item | |
762 | The third method is to ask the user for a label. This is most | |
763 | useful for things which are easy to describe briefly and do not turn up | |
764 | too frequently in a document. @b{Ref@TeX{}} uses this for figures and | |
765 | tables. Of course, one can enter the label directly by typing the full | |
766 | @samp{\label@{mark@}}. The advantage of using @code{reftex-label} | |
767 | anyway is that @b{Ref@TeX{}} will know that a new label has been defined. | |
768 | It will then not be necessary to rescan the document in order to access | |
cd19b06c | 769 | this label later. |

794 | @emph{label type} (for example section, table, figure, equation, etc.). | |
795 | In order to determine the label type, RefTeX parses around each label | |
796 | to see in what kind of environments it is located. You can speed up | |
797 | the parsing by using type-specific prefixes for labels and configuring | |
798 | the variable @code{reftex-trust-label-prefix}. | |

807 | write @samp{As shown in eq.} and the press @kbd{C-c )}, @b{Ref@TeX{}} knows | |
808 | that an equation label is going to be referenced. If it cannot figure | |
cd19b06c | 809 | out what label category is needed, it will query for one. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
810 | |
811 | You will then be presented with a label selection menu. This is a | |
812 | special buffer which contains an outline of the document along with all | |
813 | labels of the given label category. In addition, next to the label | |
814 | there will be one line of context of the label definition, which is some | |
815 | text in the buffer near the label definition. Usually this is | |
816 | sufficient to identify the label. If you are unsure about a certain | |
817 | label, pressing @key{SPC} will show the label definition point in | |
cd19b06c | 818 | another window. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
819 | |
820 | In order to reference a label, move to cursor to the correct label and | |
821 | press @key{RET}. You can also reference several labels with a single | |
822 | call to @code{reftex-reference} by marking entries with the @kbd{m} | |
823 | key (see below). | |
824 | ||
825 | @kindex ? | |
826 | Here is a list of special commands in the selection buffer. A summary | |
827 | of this information is always available from the selection process by | |
cd19b06c | 828 | pressing @kbd{?}. |

847 | @item b | |
848 | Jump back to the position where you last left the selection buffer. | |
cd19b06c | 849 | Normally this should get you back to the last referenced label. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
850 | |
851 | @item C-c C-n | |

867 | @vindex reftex-revisit-to-follow | |
868 | Toggle follow mode. When follow mode is active, the other window will | |
869 | always display the full context of the current label. This is similar | |
870 | to pressing @key{SPC} after each cursor motion. Note that only context | |
871 | in files already visited is shown. @b{RefTeX} will not visit a file | |
872 | just for follow mode. See, however, the variable | |
cd19b06c | 873 | @code{reftex-revisit-to-follow}. |
6bf7aab6 DL |

894 | @kbd{RET} will accept all of them and place them into several | |
895 | @code{\ref} macros. The special markers @samp{,-+} also store a | |
896 | separator to be inserted before the corresponding reference. So marking | |
897 | six entries with the keys @samp{m , , - , +} will give a reference list | |
898 | like this (see the variable @code{reftex-multiref-punctuation}) | |

1212 | @itemize @minus |
1213 | @item | |
1214 | @code{t} means to get it from a default location (from the beginning of | |
1215 | a @code{\macro} or after the @code{\begin} statement). @code{t} is | |
cd19b06c | 1216 | @emph{not} a good choice for eqnarray and similar environments. |
6bf7aab6 | 1217 | @item |
cd19b06c | 1218 | @code{nil} means to use the text right after the label definition. |

1225 | The following list of strings is used to guess the correct label type |
1226 | from the word before point when creating a reference. E.g. if you | |
6bf7aab6 | 1227 | write: @samp{As we have shown in Theorem} and then press @kbd{C-c )}, |
d4e1eea3 | 1228 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} will know that you are looking for a theorem label and |
cd19b06c | 1229 | restrict the menu to only these labels without even asking. |
d4e1eea3 CD |
1230 | |
1231 | The final item in each entry is the level at which the environment | |
1232 | should produce entries in the table of context buffer. If the number is | |
1233 | positive, the environment will produce numbered entries (like | |
1234 | @code{\section}), if it is negative the entries will be unnumbered (like | |
1235 | @code{\section*}). Use this only for environments which structure the | |
1236 | document similar to sectioning commands. For everything else, omit the | |
cd19b06c | 1237 | item. |

1285 | Suppose you would like to have a macro for quick equations. It | |

1287 | ||
1288 | @example | |
1289 | \newcommand@{\quickeq@}[1]@{\begin@{equation@} #1 \end@{equation@}@} | |
1290 | @end example | |

1292 | @noindent | |
1293 | and used like this: | |
1294 | ||
1295 | @example | |
1296 | Einstein's equation is \quickeq@{E=mc^2 \label@{eq:einstein@}@}. | |
1297 | @end example | |
1298 | ||
1299 | We need to tell @b{Ref@TeX{}} that any label defined in the argument of the | |
1300 | @code{\quickeq} is an equation label. Here is how to do this with lisp: | |
1301 | ||
1302 | @lisp | |
1303 | (setq reftex-label-alist '(("\\quickeq@{@}" ?e nil nil 1 nil))) | |

1306 | The first element in this list is now the macro with empty braces as an | |
1307 | @emph{image} of the macro arguments. @code{?e} indicates that this is | |
1308 | an equation label, the different @code{nil} elements indicate to use the | |
1309 | default values for equations. The @samp{1} as the fifth element | |
1310 | indicates that the context of the label definition should be the 1st | |

1331 | @cindex Figure wrapping macro | |
1332 | ||
1333 | Suppose you want to make figures not directly with the figure | |
1334 | environment, but with a macro like | |
1335 | ||
1336 | @example | |
1337 | \newcommand@{\myfig@}[5][tbp]@{% | |
1338 | \begin@{figure@}[#1] | |
1339 | \epsimp[#5]@{#2@} | |

1341 | \label@{#4@} | |
1342 | \end@{figure@}@} | |

1349 | \myfig[htp]@{filename@}@{caption text@}@{label@}@{1@} | |
1350 | @end example | |
1351 | ||
1352 | Now we need to tell @b{Ref@TeX{}} that the 4th argument of the | |
1353 | @code{\myfig} macro @emph{is itself} a figure label, and where to find | |
cd19b06c | 1354 | the context. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
1355 | |
1356 | @lisp | |
1357 | (setq reftex-label-alist | |
1358 | '(("\\myfig[]@{@}@{@}@{*@}@{@}" ?f nil nil 3))) | |
1359 | @end lisp | |
1360 | ||
1361 | The empty pairs of brackets indicate the different arguments of the | |
1362 | @code{\myfig} macro. The @samp{*} marks the label argument. @code{?f} | |
1363 | indicates that this is a figure label which will be listed together with | |
1364 | labels from normal figure environments. The @code{nil} entries for | |
1365 | prefix and reference format mean to use the defaults for figure labels. | |
1366 | The @samp{3} for the context method means to grab the 3rd macro argument | |
cd19b06c | 1367 | - the caption. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
1368 | |
1369 | As a side effect of this configuration, @code{reftex-label} will now | |
1370 | insert the required naked label (without the @code{\label} macro) when | |
1371 | point is directly after the opening parenthesis of a @code{\myfig} macro | |

1446 | Some LaTeX packages define environment-like structures without using the | |
1447 | standard @samp{\begin..\end} structure. @b{Ref@TeX{}} cannot parse | |
1448 | these directly, but you can write your own special-purpose parser and | |
1449 | use it instead of the name of an environment in an entry for | |
1450 | @code{reftex-label-alist}. The function should check if point is | |
1451 | currently in the special environment it was written to detect. If so, | |
1452 | it must return a buffer position indicating the start of this | |
1453 | environment. The return value must be @code{nil} on failure to detect | |
1454 | the environment. The function is called with one argument @var{bound}. | |
1455 | If non-@code{nil}, @var{bound} is a boundary for backwards searches | |
cd19b06c | 1456 | which should be observed. We will discuss two examples. |

1461 | environments, like @code{\be} for @code{\begin@{equation@}}, and | |
1462 | @code{\ee} for @code{\end@{equation@}}. The parser function would have | |
1463 | to search backward for these macros. When the first match is | |
1464 | @code{\ee}, point is not in this environment. When the first match is | |
1465 | @code{\be}, point is in this environment and the function must return | |
1466 | the beginning of the match. To avoid scanning too far, we can also look | |
6f826971 | 1467 | for empty lines which cannot occur inside an equation environment. |

1827 | The standard LaTeX macro @code{\cite} works well with numeric or simple | |
1828 | key citations. To deal with the more complex task of author-year | |
1829 | citations as used in many natural sciences, a variety of packages has | |
1830 | been developed which define derived forms of the @code{\cite} macro. | |
2470aebd CD |
1831 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} can be configured to produce these citation macros as well |
1832 | by setting the variable @code{reftex-cite-format}. For the most | |
1833 | commonly used packages (@code{natbib}, @code{harvard}, @code{chicago}, | |
1834 | @code{jurabib}) this may be done from the menu, under | |
1835 | @code{Ref->Citation Styles}. Since there are usually several macros to | |
1836 | create the citations, executing @code{reftex-citation} (@kbd{C-c [}) | |
1837 | starts by prompting for the correct macro. For the Natbib style, this | |
1838 | looks like this: | |

6bf7aab6 | 1862 | the @kbd{p} key for a parenthetical citation (like: @code{As shown |

1943 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} offers two ways to create a new BibTeX database file. | |

1945 | The first option produces a file which contains only the entries | |
1946 | actually referenced in the current document. This can be useful if | |
1947 | the database in only meant for a single document and you want to clean | |
1948 | it of old and unused ballast. It can also be useful while writing a | |
1949 | document together with collaborators, in order to avoid sending around | |
1950 | the entire (possibly very large) database. To create the file, use | |
1951 | @kbd{M-x reftex-create-bibtex-file}, also available from the menu | |
1952 | under @code{Ref->Global Actions->Create Bibtex File}. The command will | |
1953 | prompt for a BibTeX file name and write the extracted entries to that | |
1954 | file. | |
1955 | ||
1956 | The second option makes use of the selection process started by the | |
1957 | command @kbd{C-c [} (@pxref{Creating Citations}). This command uses a | |
1958 | regular expression to select entries, and lists them in a formatted | |
1959 | selection buffer. After pressing the @kbd{e} key (mnemonics: Export), | |
1960 | the command will prompt for the name of a new BibTeX file and write | |
1961 | the selected entries to that file. You can also first mark some | |
1962 | entries in the selection buffer with the @kbd{m} key and then export | |
1963 | either the @i{marked} entries (with the @kbd{e} key) or the | |
1964 | @i{unmarked} entries (with the @kbd{E} key). | |

1983 | make the index consistent and complete. There are basically two | |
1984 | approaches one can follow, and both have their merits. | |
1985 | ||
1986 | @enumerate | |
1987 | @item | |
1988 | Part of the indexing should already be done with the markup. The | |
1989 | document structure should be reflected in the index, so when starting | |
1990 | new sections, the basic topics of the section should be indexed. If the | |
1991 | document contains definitions, theorems or the like, these should all | |
1992 | correspond to appropriate index entries. This part of the index can | |
1993 | very well be developed along with the document. Often it is worthwhile | |
1994 | to define special purpose macros which define an item and at the same | |
1995 | time make an index entry, possibly with special formatting to make the | |
1996 | reference page in the index bold or underlined. To make @b{Ref@TeX{}} | |
1997 | support for indexing possible, these special macros must be added to | |
cd19b06c | 1998 | @b{Ref@TeX{}}'s configuration (@pxref{Defining Index Macros}). |
d4e1eea3 CD |
1999 | |
2000 | @item | |
2001 | The rest of the index is often just a collection of where in the | |
2002 | document certain words or phrases are being used. This part is | |
2003 | difficult to develop along with the document, because consistent entries | |
2004 | for each occurrence are needed and are best selected when the document | |
2005 | is ready. @b{Ref@TeX{}} supports this with an @emph{index phrases file} | |
cd19b06c | 2006 | which collects phrases and helps indexing the phrases globally. |
d4e1eea3 CD |
2007 | @end enumerate |
2008 | ||
2009 | Before you start, you need to make sure that @b{Ref@TeX{}} knows about | |
2010 | the index style being used in the current document. @b{Ref@TeX{}} has | |
2011 | builtin support for the default @code{\index} and @code{\glossary} | |
2012 | macros. Other LaTeX packages, like the @file{multind} or @file{index} | |
2013 | package, redefine the @code{\index} macro to have an additional | |
2014 | argument, and @b{Ref@TeX{}} needs to be configured for those. A | |
2015 | sufficiently new version of AUCTeX (9.10c or later) will do this | |
2016 | automatically. If you really don't use AUCTeX (you should!), this | |
2017 | configuration needs to be done by hand with the menu (@code{Ref->Index | |

2046 | (@code{\index} by default) can be configured with the variable | |
2047 | @code{reftex-index-default-macro}. When the command is called with a | |

2074 | file of the document and has the extension @file{.rip} (@b{R}eftex | |
2075 | @b{I}ndex @b{P}hrases). You can create or visit the file with @kbd{C-c | |
2076 | |} (@code{reftex-index-visit-phrases-buffer}). If the file is empty it | |
2077 | is initialized by inserting a file header which contains the definition | |
2078 | of the available index macros. This list is initialized from | |
2079 | @code{reftex-index-macros} (@pxref{Defining Index Macros}). You can | |
2080 | edit the header as needed, but if you define new LaTeX indexing macros, | |
2081 | don't forget to add them to @code{reftex-index-macros} as well. Here is | |
cd19b06c | 2082 | a phrase file header example: |
d4e1eea3 CD |
2083 | |
2084 | @example | |
2085 | % -*- mode: reftex-index-phrases -*- | |
2086 | % Key Macro Format Repeat | |

2092 | %---------------------------------------------------------- | |
2093 | @end example | |
2094 | ||
2095 | The macro definition lines consist of a unique letter identifying a | |
2096 | macro, a format string and the @var{repeat} flag, all separated by | |
2097 | @key{TAB}. The format string shows how the macro is to be applied, the | |
2098 | @samp{%s} will be replaced with the index entry. The repeat flag | |
2099 | indicates if @var{word} is indexed by the macro as | |
2100 | @samp{\index@{@var{word}@}} (@var{repeat} = @code{nil}) or as | |
2101 | @samp{\index@{@var{word}@}@var{word}} (@var{repeat} = @code{t}). In the | |
2102 | above example it is assumed that the macro @code{\index*@{@var{word}@}} | |
2103 | already typesets its argument in the text, so that it is unnecessary to | |
cd19b06c | 2104 | repeat @var{word} outside the macro. |

2118 | Phrases for indexing can be collected while writing the document. The | |
2119 | command @kbd{C-c \} (@code{reftex-index-phrase-selection-or-word}) | |
42187e99 | 2120 | copies the current selection (if active) or the word near point into the |

2122 | can be edited. To return to the LaTeX document, press @kbd{C-c C-c} | |
2123 | (@code{reftex-index-phrases-save-and-return}). | |
2124 | ||
2125 | You can also prepare the list of index phrases in a different way and | |
42187e99 | 2126 | copy it into the phrases file. For example you might want to start from |
d4e1eea3 CD |
2127 | a word list of the document and remove all words which should not be |
2128 | indexed. | |
6bf7aab6 | 2129 | |
d4e1eea3 CD |
2130 | The phrase lines in the phrase buffer must have a specific format. |
2131 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} will use font-lock to indicate if a line has the proper | |
2132 | format. A phrase line looks like this: | |
6bf7aab6 | 2133 | |
d4e1eea3 | 2134 | @example |
42187e99 | 2135 | [@var{key}] <TABs> @var{phrase} [<TABs> @var{arg}[&&@var{arg}]... [ || @var{arg}]...] |
d4e1eea3 CD |
2136 | @end example |
2137 | ||
2138 | @code{<TABs>} stands for white space containing at least one @key{TAB}. | |
2139 | @var{key} must be at the start of the line and is the character | |
2140 | identifying one of the macros defined in the file header. It is | |
2141 | optional - when omitted, the first macro definition line in the file | |
2142 | will be used for this phrase. The @var{phrase} is the phrase to be | |
2143 | searched for when indexing. It may contain several words separated by | |
2144 | spaces. By default the search phrase is also the text entered as | |
2145 | argument of the index macro. If you want the index entry to be | |
2146 | different from the search phrase, enter another @key{TAB} and the index | |
2147 | argument @var{arg}. If you want to have each match produce several | |
2148 | index entries, separate the different index arguments with @samp{ && | |
2149 | }@footnote{@samp{&&} with optional spaces, see | |
2150 | @code{reftex-index-phrases-logical-and-regexp}.}. If you want to be | |
2151 | able to choose at each match between several different index arguments, | |
2152 | separate them with @samp{ || }@footnote{@samp{||} with optional spaces, | |
2153 | see @code{reftex-index-phrases-logical-or-regexp}.}. Here is an | |
cd19b06c | 2154 | example: |
d4e1eea3 CD |
2155 | |
2156 | @example | |
2157 | %-------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
2158 | I Sun | |
2159 | i Planet Planets | |
2160 | i Vega Stars!Vega | |
2161 | Jupiter Planets!Jupiter | |
2162 | i Mars Planets!Mars || Gods!Mars || Chocolate Bars!Mars | |
2163 | i Pluto Planets!Pluto && Kuiper Belt Objects!Pluto | |
2164 | @end example | |
2165 | ||
2166 | ||
2167 | So @samp{Sun} will be indexed directly as @samp{\index*@{Sun@}}, while | |
2168 | @samp{Planet} will be indexed as @samp{\index@{Planets@}Planet}. | |
2169 | @samp{Vega} will be indexed as a subitem of @samp{Stars}. The | |
2170 | @samp{Jupiter} line will also use the @samp{i} macro as it was the first | |
2171 | macro definition in the file header (see above example). At each | |
2172 | occurrence of @samp{Mars} you will be able choose between indexing it as | |
2173 | a subitem of @samp{Planets}, @samp{Gods} or @samp{Chocolate Bars}. | |
2174 | Finally, every occurrence of @samp{Pluto} will be indexed as | |
2175 | @samp{\index@{Planets!Pluto@}\index@{Kuiper Belt Objects!Pluto@}Pluto} | |
cd19b06c | 2176 | and will therefore create two different index entries. |

2183 | ||
2184 | @kindex C-c C-s | |
2185 | Before indexing the phrases in the phrases buffer, they should be | |
2186 | checked carefully for consistency. A first step is to sort the phrases | |
2187 | alphabetically - this is done with the command @kbd{C-c C-s} | |
2188 | (@code{reftex-index-sort-phrases}). It will sort all phrases in the | |
2189 | buffer alphabetically by search phrase. If you want to group certain | |
2190 | phrases and only sort within the groups, insert empty lines between the | |
2191 | groups. Sorting will only change the sequence of phrases within each | |
cd19b06c | 2192 | group (see the variable @code{reftex-index-phrases-sort-in-blocks}). |
d4e1eea3 CD |
2193 | |
2194 | @kindex C-c C-i | |
2195 | A useful command is @kbd{C-c C-i} (@code{reftex-index-phrases-info}) | |
2196 | which lists information about the phrase at point, including an example | |
2197 | of how the index entry will look like and the number of expected matches | |
cd19b06c | 2198 | in the document. |
d4e1eea3 CD |
2199 | |
2200 | @kindex C-c C-t | |
2201 | Another important check is to find out if there are double or | |
2202 | overlapping entries in the buffer. For example if you are first | |
2203 | searching and indexing @samp{Mars} and then @samp{Planet Mars}, the | |
2204 | second phrase will not match because of the index macro inserted before | |
2205 | @samp{Mars} earlier. The command @kbd{C-c C-t} | |
2206 | (@code{reftex-index-find-next-conflict-phrase}) finds the next phrase in | |
2207 | the buffer which is either duplicate or a subphrase of another phrase. | |
2208 | In order to check the whole buffer like this, start at the beginning and | |
cd19b06c | 2209 | execute this command repeatedly. |

2217 | Once the index phrases have been collected and organized, you are set | |
2218 | for global indexing. I recommend to do this only on an otherwise | |
2219 | finished document. Global indexing starts from the phrases buffer. | |
2220 | There are several commands which start indexing: @kbd{C-c C-x} acts on | |
2221 | the current phrase line, @kbd{C-c C-r} on all lines in the current | |
2222 | region and @kbd{C-c C-a} on all phrase lines in the buffer. It is | |
2223 | probably good to do indexing in small chunks since your concentration | |
cd19b06c | 2224 | may not last long enough to do everything in one go. |
d4e1eea3 CD |
2225 | |
2226 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} will start at the first phrase line and search the phrase | |
2227 | globally in the whole document. At each match it will stop, compute the | |
2228 | replacement string and offer you the following choices@footnote{Windows | |
42187e99 | 2229 | users: Restrict yourself to the described keys during indexing. Pressing |

2261 | associated customization variables to set the defaults (@pxref{Options | |
2262 | (Index Support)}). Here is a short explanation of what the options do: | |
2263 | ||
2264 | @table @i | |
2265 | @item Match Whole Words | |
2266 | When searching for index phrases, make sure whole words are matched. | |
2267 | This should probably always be on. | |
2268 | @item Case Sensitive Search | |
2269 | Search case sensitively for phrases. I recommend to have this setting | |
2270 | off, in order to match the capitalized words at the beginning of a | |
2271 | sentence, and even typos. You can always say @emph{no} at a match you | |
2272 | do not like. | |
2273 | @item Wrap Long Lines | |
2274 | Inserting index macros increases the line length. Turn this option on | |
2275 | to allow @b{Ref@TeX{}} to wrap long lines. | |
2276 | @item Skip Indexed Matches | |
2277 | When this is on, @b{Ref@TeX{}} will at each match try to figure out if | |
2278 | this match is already indexed. A match is considered indexed if it is | |
2279 | either the argument of an index macro, or if an index macro is directly | |
2280 | (without whitespace separation) before or after the match. Index macros | |
2281 | are those configured in @code{reftex-index-macros}. Intended for | |
cd19b06c | 2282 | re-indexing a documents after changes have been made. |
d4e1eea3 CD |
2283 | @end table |
2284 | ||
2285 | Even though indexing should be the last thing you do to a document, you | |
2286 | are bound to make changes afterwards. Indexing then has to be applied | |
2287 | to the changed regions. The command | |
2288 | @code{reftex-index-phrases-apply-to-region} is designed for this | |
2289 | purpose. When called from a LaTeX document with active region, it will | |

2317 | One caveat: @b{Ref@TeX{}} finds the definition point of an index entry | |
2318 | by searching near the buffer position where it had found to macro during | |
2319 | scanning. If you have several identical index entries in the same | |
2320 | buffer and significant changes have shifted the entries around, you must | |
2321 | rescan the buffer to ensure the correspondence between the | |
2322 | @file{*Index*} buffer and the definition locations. It is therefore | |
2323 | advisable to rescan the document (with @kbd{r} or @kbd{C-u r}) | |

2489 | @xref{Creating Index Entries}, for information on how to do that. | |

2493 | @cindex Defining Index Macros | |
2494 | @cindex Index macros, defining | |
2495 | @vindex reftex-index-macros | |
2496 | ||
2497 | When writing a document with an index you will probably define | |
2498 | additional macros which make entries into the index. | |
2499 | Let's look at an example. | |
2500 | ||
2501 | @example | |
2502 | \newcommand@{\ix@}[1]@{#1\index@{#1@}@} | |
2503 | \newcommand@{\nindex@}[1]@{\textit@{#1@}\index[name]@{#1@}@} | |
2504 | \newcommand@{\astobj@}[1]@{\index@{Astronomical Objects!#1@}@} | |
2505 | @end example | |
2506 | ||
2507 | The first macro @code{\ix} typesets its argument in the text and places | |
2508 | it into the index. The second macro @code{\nindex} typesets its | |
2509 | argument in the text and places it into a separate index with the tag | |
2510 | @samp{name}@footnote{We are using the syntax of the @file{index} package | |
2511 | here.}. The last macro also places its argument into the index, but as | |
2512 | subitems under the main index entry @samp{Astronomical Objects}. Here | |
2513 | is how to make @b{Ref@TeX{}} recognize and correctly interpret these | |
2514 | macros, first with Emacs Lisp. | |
2515 | ||
2516 | @lisp | |
2517 | (setq reftex-index-macros | |
d4e1eea3 CD |
2518 | '(("\\ix@{*@}" "idx" ?x "" nil nil) |
2519 | ("\\nindex@{*@}" "name" ?n "" nil nil) | |
2520 | ("\\astobj@{*@}" "idx" ?o "Astronomical Objects!" nil t))) | |
6bf7aab6 DL |
2521 | @end lisp |
2522 | ||
2523 | Note that the index tag is @samp{idx} for the main index, and | |
2524 | @samp{name} for the name index. @samp{idx} and @samp{glo} are reserved | |
2525 | for the default index and for the glossary. | |
2526 | ||
2527 | The character arguments @code{?x}, @code{?n}, and @code{?o} are for | |
2528 | quick identification of these macros when @b{Ref@TeX{}} inserts new | |
2529 | index entries with @code{reftex-index}. These codes need to be | |
2530 | unique. @code{?i}, @code{?I}, and @code{?g} are reserved for the | |
2531 | @code{\index}, @code{\index*}, and @code{\glossary} macros, | |
42187e99 | 2532 | respectively. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
2533 | |
2534 | The following string is empty unless your macro adds a superordinate | |
2535 | entry to the index key - this is the case for the @code{\astobj} macro. | |
2536 | ||
d4e1eea3 CD |
2537 | The next entry can be a hook function to exclude certain matches, it |
2538 | almost always can be @code{nil}. | |
2539 | ||
2540 | The final element in the list indicates if the text being indexed needs | |
2541 | to be repeated outside the macro. For the normal index macros, this | |
2542 | should be @code{t}. Only if the macro typesets the entry in the text | |
2543 | (like @code{\ix} and @code{\nindex} in the example do), this should be | |
2544 | @code{nil}. | |
2545 | ||
6bf7aab6 DL |
2546 | To do the same thing with customize, you need to fill in the templates |
2547 | like this: | |
2548 | ||
2549 | @example | |
2550 | Repeat: | |
2551 | [INS] [DEL] List: | |
2552 | Macro with args: \ix@{*@} | |
2553 | Index Tag : [Value Menu] String: idx | |

2568 | Access Key : o | |
2569 | Key Prefix : Astronomical Objects! | |
2570 | Exclusion hook : nil | |
d4e1eea3 | 2571 | Repeat Outside : [Toggle] on (non-nil) |
6bf7aab6 DL |
2572 | [INS] |
2573 | @end example | |
2574 | ||
2575 | With the macro @code{\ix} defined, you may want to change the default | |
2576 | macro used for indexing a text phrase (@pxref{Creating Index Entries}). | |
2577 | This would be done like this | |
2578 | ||
2579 | @lisp | |
d4e1eea3 | 2580 | (setq reftex-index-default-macro '(?x "idx")) |
6bf7aab6 DL |
2581 | @end lisp |
2582 | ||
2583 | which specifies that the macro identified with the character @code{?x} (the | |
2584 | @code{\ix} macro) should be used for indexing phrases and words already | |
2585 | in the buffer with @kbd{C-c /} (@code{reftex-index-selection-or-word}). | |
cd19b06c | 2586 | The index tag is "idx". |

2822 | Some parts of @b{Ref@TeX{}} are language dependent. The default | |
2823 | settings work well for English. If you are writing in a different | |
2824 | language, the following hints may be useful: | |
2825 | ||

2827 | @item | |
2828 | @vindex reftex-derive-label-parameters | |
2829 | @vindex reftex-abbrev-parameters | |
2830 | The mechanism to derive a label from context includes the abbreviation | |
2831 | of words and omission of unimportant words. These mechanisms may have | |
2832 | to be changed for other languages. See the variables | |
2833 | @code{reftex-derive-label-parameters} and @code{reftex-abbrev-parameters}. | |

2836 | @vindex reftex-translate-to-ascii-function | |
2837 | @vindex reftex-label-illegal-re | |
2838 | Also, when a label is derived from context, @b{Ref@TeX{}} clears the | |
2cbd16b9 | 2839 | context string from non-ASCII characters in order to make a valid label. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
2840 | If there should ever be a version of @TeX{} which allows extended |
2841 | characters @emph{in labels}, then we will have to look at the | |
2842 | variables @code{reftex-translate-to-ascii-function} and | |
2843 | @code{reftex-label-illegal-re}. | |
2844 | ||
2845 | @item | |
2846 | When a label is referenced, @b{Ref@TeX{}} looks at the word before point | |
2847 | to guess which label type is required. These @emph{magic words} are | |

2862 | @cindex Finding files | |
2863 | ||
2864 | In order to find files included in a document via @code{\input} or | |
2865 | @code{\include}, @b{Ref@TeX{}} searches all directories specified in the | |
2866 | environment variable @code{TEXINPUTS}. Similarly, it will search the | |
2867 | path specified in the variables @code{BIBINPUTS} and @code{TEXBIB} for | |
2868 | BibTeX database files. | |
2869 | ||
2870 | When searching, @b{Ref@TeX{}} will also expand recursive path | |
2871 | definitions (directories ending in @samp{//} or @samp{!!}). But it will | |
2872 | only search and expand directories @emph{explicitly} given in these | |
2873 | variables. This may cause problems under the following circumstances: | |
2874 | ||
2875 | @itemize @bullet | |
2876 | @item | |
2877 | Most TeX system have a default search path for both TeX files and BibTeX | |
2878 | files which is defined in some setup file. Usually this default path is | |
2879 | for system files which @b{Ref@TeX{}} does not need to see. But if your | |
2880 | document needs TeX files or BibTeX database files in a directory only | |
2881 | given in the default search path, @b{Ref@TeX{}} will fail to find them. | |
2882 | @item | |
2883 | Some TeX systems do not use environment variables at all in order to | |
2884 | specify the search path. Both default and user search path are then | |
2885 | defined in setup files. | |
2886 | @end itemize | |
2887 | ||
2888 | @noindent | |
2889 | There are three ways to solve this problem: | |
2890 | ||
2891 | @itemize @bullet | |
2892 | @item | |
2893 | Specify all relevant directories explicitly in the environment | |
2894 | variables. If for some reason you don't want to mess with the default | |
2895 | variables @code{TEXINPUTS} and @code{BIBINPUTS}, define your own | |
2896 | variables and configure @b{Ref@TeX{}} to use them instead: | |
2897 | ||
2898 | @lisp | |
2899 | (setq reftex-texpath-environment-variables '("MYTEXINPUTS")) | |
2900 | (setq reftex-bibpath-environment-variables '("MYBIBINPUTS")) | |
2901 | @end lisp | |
2902 | ||

2911 | @end lisp | |
2912 | ||
2913 | @item | |
2914 | Some TeX systems provide stand--alone programs to do the file search just | |
2915 | like TeX and BibTeX. E.g. Thomas Esser's @code{teTeX} uses the | |
2916 | @code{kpathsearch} library which provides the command @code{kpsewhich} | |
2917 | to search for files. @b{Ref@TeX{}} can be configured to use this | |
2918 | program. Note that the exact syntax of the @code{kpsewhich} | |
2919 | command depends upon the version of that program. | |

2936 | the new extension must also be known to AUCTeX via the variable | |

2982 | re-parsing of the entire document in order to update the parsing | |
2983 | information. For a large document this can be unnecessary, in | |
2984 | particular if only one file has changed. @b{Ref@TeX{}} can be configured | |
2985 | to do partial scans instead of full ones. @kbd{C-u} re-parsing then | |
2986 | does apply only to the current buffer and files included from it. | |
2987 | Likewise, the @kbd{r} key in both the label selection buffer and the | |

3006 | information can be stored in a file. The file @file{MASTER.rel} is used | |
3007 | for storing information about a document with master file | |
3008 | @file{MASTER.tex}. It is written automatically when you kill a buffer | |

3022 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} normally parses around each label to check in which | |
3023 | environment this label is located, in order to assign a label type to | |
3024 | the label. If your document contains thousands of labels, document | |
3025 | parsing will take considerable time. If you have been using label prefixes | |
3026 | like tab: and fn: consistently, you can tell @b{Ref@TeX{}} to get the | |
3027 | label type directly from the prefix, without additional parsing. This | |
3028 | will be faster and also allow labels to end up in the correct category | |

3117 | @subsection The AUC@TeX{}-@b{Ref@TeX{}} Interface | |
3118 | ||
3119 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} contains code to interface with AUCTeX. When this | |
3120 | interface is turned on, both packages will interact closely. Instead of | |
3121 | using @b{Ref@TeX{}}'s commands directly, you can then also use them | |
3122 | indirectly as part of the AUCTeX | |
3123 | environment@footnote{@b{Ref@TeX{}} 4.0 and AUCTeX 9.10c will be | |
3124 | needed for all of this to work. Parts of it work also with earlier | |
cd19b06c | 3125 | versions.}. The interface is turned on with |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3126 | |
3127 | @lisp | |
3128 | (setq reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX t) | |
3129 | @end lisp | |
3130 | ||
3131 | If you need finer control about which parts of the interface are used | |
3132 | and which not, read the docstring of the variable | |
3133 | @code{reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX} or customize it with @kbd{M-x | |
3134 | customize-variable @key{RET} reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX @key{RET}}. | |
3135 | ||
3136 | The following list describes the individual parts of the interface. | |
3137 | ||
3138 | @itemize @bullet | |

3146 | @b{AUCTeX calls @code{reftex-label} to insert labels}@* | |
3147 | When a new section is created with @kbd{C-c C-s}, or a new environment | |
3148 | is inserted with @kbd{C-c C-e}, AUCTeX normally prompts for a label to | |
3149 | go with it. With the interface, @code{reftex-label} is called instead. | |
3150 | For example, if you type @kbd{C-c C-e equation @key{RET}}, AUCTeX and | |
3151 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} will insert | |
3152 | ||
3153 | @example | |
3154 | \begin@{equation@} | |
3155 | \label@{eq:1@} | |

3158 | @end example | |
3159 | ||
3160 | @noindent | |
3161 | without further prompts. | |
3162 | ||
3163 | Similarly, when you type @kbd{C-c C-s section @key{RET}}, @b{Ref@TeX{}} | |
3164 | will offer its default label which is derived from the section title. | |
3165 | ||
3166 | @item | |
3167 | @b{AUCTeX tells @b{Ref@TeX{}} about new sections}@* | |
3168 | When creating a new section with @kbd{C-c C-s}, @b{Ref@TeX{}} will not | |
cd19b06c | 3169 | have to rescan the buffer in order to see it. |

3182 | @b{@b{Ref@TeX{}} supplies macro arguments}@* When you insert a macro | |
3183 | interactively with @kbd{C-c @key{RET}}, AUCTeX normally prompts for | |
3184 | macro arguments. Internally, it uses the functions | |
3185 | @code{TeX-arg-label}, @code{TeX-arg-cite}, and @code{TeX-arg-index} to | |
3186 | prompt for arguments which are labels, citation keys and index entries. | |
3187 | The interface takes over these functions@footnote{@code{fset} is used to | |
3188 | do this, which is not reversible. However, @b{Ref@TeX{}} implements the | |
3189 | old functionality when you later decide to turn off the interface.} and | |
3190 | supplies the macro arguments with @b{Ref@TeX{}'s} mechanisms. For | |
3191 | example, when you type @kbd{C-c @key{RET} ref @key{RET}}, @b{Ref@TeX{}} | |
3192 | will supply its label selection process (@pxref{Referencing | |
cd19b06c | 3193 | Labels}). |

3202 | @cindex Style files, AUCTeX | |
3203 | @findex TeX-add-style-hook, @r{AUCTeX} | |
3204 | Style files are Emacs Lisp files which are evaluated by AUCTeX in | |
3205 | association with the @code{\documentclass} and @code{\usepackage} | |
a0d31341 CD |
3206 | commands of a document (@pxref{Style Files,,,auctex}). Support for |
3207 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} in such a style file is useful when the LaTeX style | |
3208 | defines macros or environments connected with labels, citations, or the | |
3209 | index. Many style files (e.g. @file{amsmath.el} or @file{natbib.el}) | |
3210 | distributed with AUCTeX already support @b{Ref@TeX{}} in this | |
cd19b06c | 3211 | way. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3212 | |
3213 | Before calling a @b{Ref@TeX{}} function, the style hook should always | |
3214 | test for the availability of the function, so that the style file will | |
ae24815b | 3215 | also work for people who do not use @b{Ref@TeX{}}. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3216 | |
3217 | Additions made with style files in the way described below remain local | |
3218 | to the current document. For example, if one package uses AMSTeX, the | |
3219 | style file will make @b{Ref@TeX{}} switch over to @code{\eqref}, but | |
cd19b06c | 3220 | this will not affect other documents. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3221 | |
3222 | @findex reftex-add-label-environments | |
3223 | @findex reftex-add-to-label-alist | |
3224 | A style hook may contain calls to | |
3225 | @code{reftex-add-label-environments}@footnote{This used to be the | |
3226 | function @code{reftex-add-to-label-alist} which is still available as an | |
3227 | alias for compatibility.} which defines additions to | |
3228 | @code{reftex-label-alist}. The argument taken by this function must have | |
3229 | the same format as @code{reftex-label-alist}. The @file{amsmath.el} | |
cd19b06c | 3230 | style file of AUCTeX for example contains the following: |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3231 | |
3232 | @lisp | |

3242 | @findex LaTeX-add-environments, @r{AUCTeX} | |
3243 | while a package @code{myprop} defining a @code{proposition} environment | |

6bf7aab6 DL |
3245 | |
3246 | @lisp | |
3247 | @group | |
3248 | (TeX-add-style-hook "myprop" | |

3256 | @end lisp | |
3257 | ||
3258 | @findex reftex-set-cite-format | |
3259 | Similarly, a style hook may contain a call to | |
3260 | @code{reftex-set-cite-format} to set the citation format. The style | |
3261 | file @file{natbib.el} for the Natbib citation style does switch | |
cd19b06c | 3262 | @b{Ref@TeX{}}'s citation format like this: |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3263 | |
3264 | @lisp | |
3265 | (TeX-add-style-hook "natbib" | |
3266 | (lambda () | |
3267 | (if (fboundp 'reftex-set-cite-format) | |
3268 | (reftex-set-cite-format 'natbib)))) | |
3269 | @end lisp | |
3270 | ||
42187e99 | 3271 | @findex reftex-add-index-macros |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3272 | The hook may contain a call to @code{reftex-add-index-macros} to |
3273 | define additional @code{\index}-like macros. The argument must have | |
3274 | the same format as @code{reftex-index-macros}. It may be a symbol, to | |
3275 | trigger support for one of the builtin index packages. For example, | |
3276 | the style @file{multind.el} contains | |
3277 | ||
3278 | @lisp | |
3279 | (TeX-add-style-hook "multind" | |
3280 | (lambda () | |
3281 | (and (fboundp 'reftex-add-index-macros) | |
3282 | (reftex-add-index-macros '(multind))))) | |
3283 | @end lisp | |
3284 | ||
3285 | If you have your own package @file{myindex} which defines the | |
3286 | following macros to be used with the LaTeX @file{index.sty} file | |
3287 | @example | |
3288 | \newcommand@{\molec@}[1]@{#1\index@{Molecules!#1@}@} | |
3289 | \newcommand@{\aindex@}[1]@{#1\index[author]@{#1@} | |
3290 | @end example | |
3291 | ||
3292 | you could write this in the style file @file{myindex.el}: | |
3293 | ||
3294 | @lisp | |
3295 | (TeX-add-style-hook "myindex" | |
3296 | (lambda () | |
3297 | (TeX-add-symbols | |
3298 | '("molec" TeX-arg-index) | |
3299 | '("aindex" TeX-arg-index)) | |
3300 | (if (fboundp 'reftex-add-index-macros) | |
3301 | (reftex-add-index-macros | |

6bf7aab6 DL |
3304 | @end lisp |
3305 | ||
3306 | @findex reftex-add-section-levels | |
3307 | Finally the hook may contain a call to @code{reftex-add-section-levels} | |
3308 | to define additional section statements. For example, the FoilTeX class | |
3309 | has just two headers, @code{\foilhead} and @code{\rotatefoilhead}. Here | |
3310 | is a style file @file{foils.el} that will inform @b{Ref@TeX{}} about these: | |
3311 | ||
3312 | @lisp | |
3313 | (TeX-add-style-hook "foils" | |
3314 | (lambda () | |
3315 | (if (fboundp 'reftex-add-section-levels) | |
3316 | (reftex-add-section-levels '(("foilhead" . 3) | |
3317 | ("rotatefoilhead" . 3)))))) | |

3325 | Once you have written a document with labels, references and citations, | |
3326 | it can be nice to read it like a hypertext document. @b{Ref@TeX{}} has | |
d4e1eea3 | 3327 | support for that: @code{reftex-view-crossref} (bound to @kbd{C-c |
fbeef7be | 3328 | &}), @code{reftex-mouse-view-crossref} (bound to @kbd{S-mouse-2}), and |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3329 | @code{reftex-search-document}. A somewhat fancier interface with mouse |
3330 | highlighting is provided (among other things) by Peter S. Galbraith's | |
3331 | @file{bib-cite.el}. There is some overlap in the functionalities of | |
3332 | Bib-cite and @b{Ref@TeX{}}. Bib-cite.el comes bundled with | |
cd19b06c | 3333 | AUCTeX. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3334 | |
3335 | Bib-cite version 3.06 and later can be configured so that bib-cite's | |
3336 | mouse functions use @b{Ref@TeX{}} for displaying references and citations. | |
3337 | This can be useful in particular when working with the LaTeX @code{xr} | |
3338 | package or with an explicit @code{thebibliography} environment (rather | |
3339 | than BibTeX). Bib-cite cannot handle those, but @b{Ref@TeX{}} does. To | |

3396 | When using packages which make the buffer representation of a file | |

3400 | parts of a multifile document, because @b{Ref@TeX{}} visits these files | |
3401 | literally for speed reasons. Then both short context and section | |

3514 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} is bundled and pre-installed with Emacs since version 20.2. | |
3515 | It was also bundled and pre-installed with XEmacs 19.16--20.x. XEmacs | |
3516 | 21.x users want to install the corresponding plugin package which is | |
cd19b06c CD |
3517 | available from the @value{XEMACSFTP}. See the XEmacs 21.x |
3518 | documentation on package installation for details. | |

3546 | @cindex Commands, list of | |
3547 | ||
d4e1eea3 CD |
3548 | Here is a summary of @b{Ref@TeX{}}'s commands which can be executed from |
3549 | LaTeX files. Command which are executed from the special buffers are | |
3550 | not described here. All commands are available from the @code{Ref} | |
47d7776c | 3551 | menu. See @xref{Key Bindings}. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3552 | |
3553 | @deffn Command reftex-toc | |
3554 | Show the table of contents for the current document. When called with | |
cd19b06c | 3555 | one ore two @kbd{C-u} prefixes, rescan the document first. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3556 | @end deffn |
3557 | ||
3558 | @deffn Command reftex-label | |
3559 | Insert a unique label. With one or two @kbd{C-u} prefixes, enforce | |
3560 | document rescan first. | |
3561 | @end deffn | |
3562 | ||
3563 | @deffn Command reftex-reference | |
3564 | Start a selection process to select a label, and insert a reference to | |
3565 | it. With one or two @kbd{C-u} prefixes, enforce document rescan first. | |
3566 | @end deffn | |
3567 | ||
3568 | @deffn Command reftex-citation | |
3569 | Make a citation using BibTeX database files. After prompting for a regular | |
3570 | expression, scans the buffers with BibTeX entries (taken from the | |
3571 | @code{\bibliography} command or a @code{thebibliography} environment) | |
3572 | and offers the matching entries for selection. The selected entry is | |
28665d46 | 3573 | formatted according to @code{reftex-cite-format} and inserted into the |
cd19b06c CD |
3574 | buffer. @* |
3575 | When called with a @kbd{C-u} prefixe, prompt for optional arguments in | |
3576 | cite macros. When called with a numeric prefix, make that many citations. | |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3577 | When called with point inside the braces of a @code{\cite} command, it |
3578 | will add another key, ignoring the value of | |
42187e99 | 3579 | @code{reftex-cite-format}. @* |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3580 | The regular expression uses an expanded syntax: @samp{&&} is interpreted |
3581 | as @code{and}. Thus, @samp{aaaa&&bbb} matches entries which contain | |
3582 | both @samp{aaaa} and @samp{bbb}. While entering the regexp, completion | |
3583 | on knows citation keys is possible. @samp{=} is a good regular | |
cd19b06c | 3584 | expression to match all entries in all files. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3585 | @end deffn |
3586 | ||
3587 | @deffn Command reftex-index | |
3588 | Query for an index macro and insert it along with its arguments. The | |
3589 | index macros available are those defined in @code{reftex-index-macro} or | |
3590 | by a call to @code{reftex-add-index-macros}, typically from an AUCTeX | |
3591 | style file. @b{Ref@TeX{}} provides completion for the index tag and the | |
cd19b06c | 3592 | index key, and will prompt for other arguments. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3593 | @end deffn |
3594 | ||
3595 | @deffn Command reftex-index-selection-or-word | |
3596 | Put current selection or the word near point into the default index | |
3597 | macro. This uses the information in @code{reftex-index-default-macro} | |
3598 | to make an index entry. The phrase indexed is the current selection or | |
3599 | the word near point. When called with one @kbd{C-u} prefix, let the | |
3600 | user have a chance to edit the index entry. When called with 2 | |
3601 | @kbd{C-u} as prefix, also ask for the index macro and other stuff. When | |
3602 | called inside TeX math mode as determined by the @file{texmathp.el} | |
3603 | library which is part of AUCTeX, the string is first processed with the | |
cd19b06c | 3604 | @code{reftex-index-math-format}, which see. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3605 | @end deffn |
3606 | ||
d4e1eea3 CD |
3607 | @deffn Command reftex-index-phrase-selection-or-word |
3608 | Add current selection or the word at point to the phrases buffer. | |
3609 | When you are in transient-mark-mode and the region is active, the | |
3610 | selection will be used - otherwise the word at point. | |
3611 | You get a chance to edit the entry in the phrases buffer - to save the | |
3612 | buffer and return to the LaTeX document, finish with @kbd{C-c C-c}. | |
3613 | @end deffn | |
3614 | ||
3615 | @deffn Command reftex-index-visit-phrases-buffer | |
3616 | Switch to the phrases buffer, initialize if empty. | |
3617 | @end deffn | |
3618 | ||
3619 | @deffn Command reftex-index-phrases-apply-to-region | |
3620 | Index all index phrases in the current region. | |
3621 | This works exactly like global indexing from the index phrases buffer, | |
3622 | but operation is restricted to the current region. | |
3623 | @end deffn | |
3624 | ||
6bf7aab6 DL |
3625 | @deffn Command reftex-display-index |
3626 | Display a buffer with an index compiled from the current document. | |
3627 | When the document has multiple indices, first prompts for the correct one. | |
3628 | When index support is turned off, offer to turn it on. | |
3629 | With one or two @kbd{C-u} prefixes, rescan document first. | |
3630 | With prefix 2, restrict index to current document section. | |
cd19b06c | 3631 | With prefix 3, restrict index to active region. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3632 | @end deffn |
3633 | ||
6bf7aab6 DL |
3634 | @deffn Command reftex-view-crossref |
3635 | View cross reference of macro at point. Point must be on the @var{key} | |
3636 | argument. Works with the macros @code{\label}, @code{\ref}, | |
3637 | @code{\cite}, @code{\bibitem}, @code{\index} and many derivatives of | |
3638 | these. Where it makes sense, subsequent calls show additional | |
3639 | locations. See also the variable @code{reftex-view-crossref-extra} and | |
3640 | the command @code{reftex-view-crossref-from-bibtex}. With one or two | |
3641 | @kbd{C-u} prefixes, enforce rescanning of the document. With argument | |
3642 | 2, select the window showing the cross reference. | |
3643 | @end deffn | |
3644 | ||
3645 | @deffn Command reftex-view-crossref-from-bibtex | |
3646 | View location in a LaTeX document which cites the BibTeX entry at point. | |
3647 | Since BibTeX files can be used by many LaTeX documents, this function | |
3648 | prompts upon first use for a buffer in @b{Ref@TeX{}} mode. To reset this | |
b93d35c9 | 3649 | link to a document, call the function with a prefix arg. Calling |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3650 | this function several times find successive citation locations. |
3651 | @end deffn | |
3652 | ||
3653 | @deffn Command reftex-create-tags-file | |
3654 | Create TAGS file by running @code{etags} on the current document. The | |
3655 | TAGS file is also immediately visited with | |
cd19b06c | 3656 | @code{visit-tags-table}. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3657 | @end deffn |
3658 | ||
3659 | @deffn Command reftex-grep-document | |
3660 | Run grep query through all files related to this document. | |
3661 | With prefix arg, force to rescan document. | |
cd19b06c | 3662 | No active TAGS table is required. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3663 | @end deffn |
3664 | ||
3665 | @deffn Command reftex-search-document | |
3666 | Regexp search through all files of the current document. | |
3667 | Starts always in the master file. Stops when a match is found. | |
cd19b06c | 3668 | No active TAGS table is required. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3669 | @end deffn |
3670 | ||
3671 | @deffn Command reftex-query-replace-document | |
3672 | Run a query-replace-regexp of @var{from} with @var{to} over the entire | |
3673 | document. With prefix arg, replace only word-delimited matches. No | |
cd19b06c | 3674 | active TAGS table is required. |

3677 | @deffn Command reftex-isearch-minor-mode |
3678 | Toggle a minor mode which enables incremental search to work globally | |
3679 | on the entire multifile document. Files will be searched in th | |
3680 | sequence they appear in the document. | |
3681 | @end deffn | |
3682 | ||
3b919c9f CD |
3683 | @deffn Command reftex-goto-label |
3684 | Prompt for a label (with completion) and jump to the location of this | |
3685 | label. Optional prefix argument @var{other-window} goes to the label in | |
3686 | another window. | |
3687 | @end deffn | |
3688 | ||
3689 | ||
6bf7aab6 DL |
3690 | @deffn Command reftex-change-label |
3691 | Query replace @var{from} with @var{to} in all @code{\label} and | |
3692 | @code{\ref} commands. Works on the entire multifile document. No | |
cd19b06c | 3693 | active TAGS table is required. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3694 | @end deffn |
3695 | ||
3696 | @deffn Command reftex-renumber-simple-labels | |
3697 | Renumber all simple labels in the document to make them sequentially. | |
3698 | Simple labels are the ones created by RefTeX, consisting only of the | |
3699 | prefix and a number. After the command completes, all these labels will | |
3700 | have sequential numbers throughout the document. Any references to the | |
3701 | labels will be changed as well. For this, @b{Ref@TeX{}} looks at the | |
3702 | arguments of any macros which either start or end with the string | |
3703 | @samp{ref}. This command should be used with care, in particular in | |
3704 | multifile documents. You should not use it if another document refers | |
cd19b06c | 3705 | to this one with the @code{xr} package. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3706 | @end deffn |
3707 | ||

3709 | Produce a list of all duplicate labels in the document. |
3710 | @end deffn | |
3711 | ||
3712 | @deffn Command reftex-create-bibtex-file | |
3713 | Create a new BibTeX database file with all entries referenced in document. | |
3714 | The command prompts for a filename and writes the collected entries to | |
3715 | that file. Only entries referenced in the current document with | |
ae24815b | 3716 | any @code{\cite}-like macros are used. |
cd19b06c | 3717 | The sequence in the new file is the same as it was in the old database. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3718 | @end deffn |

3777 | @defopt reftex-section-levels | |
3778 | Commands and levels used for defining sections in the document. The | |
3779 | @code{car} of each cons cell is the name of the section macro. The | |
3780 | @code{cdr} is a number indicating its level. A negative level means the | |
cd19b06c CD |
3781 | same as the positive value, but the section will never get a number. |
3782 | The @code{cdr} may also be a function which then has to return the | |
3783 | level. This list is also used for promotion and demption of sectioning | |
3784 | commands. If you are using a document class which has several sets of | |
3785 | sectioning commands, promotion only works correctly if this list is | |
3786 | sorted first by set, then within each set by level. The promotion | |
3787 | commands always select the nearest entry with the correct new level. | |

3792 | The maximum level of toc entries which will be included in the TOC. | |
3793 | Section headings with a bigger level will be ignored. In RefTeX, | |
3794 | chapters are level 1, sections level 2 etc. This variable can be | |

3798 | @defopt reftex-part-resets-chapter |
3799 | Non-@code{nil} means, @code{\part} is like any other sectioning command. | |
3800 | This means, part numbers will be included in the numbering of chapters, and | |
3801 | chapter counters will be reset for each part. | |
3802 | When @code{nil} (the default), parts are special, do not reset the | |
3803 | chapter counter and also do not show up in chapter numbers. | |

3807 | Non-@code{nil} means, turn automatic recentering of @file{*TOC*} window on. |
3808 | When active, the @file{*TOC*} window will always show the section you | |
3809 | are currently working in. Recentering happens whenever Emacs is idle for | |
3810 | more than @code{reftex-idle-time} seconds. | |
3811 | ||
3812 | Value @code{t} means, turn on immediately when RefTeX gets started. Then, | |
3813 | recentering will work for any toc window created during the session. | |
3814 | ||
3815 | Value @code{frame} (the default) means, turn automatic recentering on | |
3816 | only while the dedicated TOC frame does exist, and do the recentering | |
3817 | only in that frame. So when creating that frame (with @kbd{d} key in an | |
3818 | ordinary TOC window), the automatic recentering is turned on. When the | |
3819 | frame gets destroyed, automatic recentering is turned off again. | |

3896 | @defopt reftex-label-alist | |
3897 | Set this variable to define additions and changes to the defaults in | |
3898 | @code{reftex-default-label-alist-entries}. The only things you | |
3899 | @emph{must not} change is that @code{?s} is the type indicator for | |
3900 | section labels, and @key{SPC} for the @code{any} label type. These are | |
cd19b06c | 3901 | hard-coded at other places in the code. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3902 | |
3903 | The value of the variable must be a list of items. Each item is a list | |
3904 | itself and has the following structure: | |
3905 | ||
3906 | @example | |
3907 | (@var{env-or-macro} @var{type-key} @var{label-prefix} @var{reference-format} | |
d4e1eea3 | 3908 | @var{context-method} (@var{magic-word} ... ) @var{toc-level}) |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3909 | @end example |
3910 | ||
3911 | Each list entry describes either an environment carrying a counter for | |
3912 | use with @code{\label} and @code{\ref}, or a LaTeX macro defining a | |
3913 | label as (or inside) one of its arguments. The elements of each list | |
cd19b06c | 3914 | entry are: |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3915 | |
3916 | @table @asis | |
3917 | @item @var{env-or-macro} | |
3918 | Name of the environment (like @samp{table}) or macro (like | |
3919 | @samp{\myfig}). For macros, indicate the arguments, as in | |
3920 | @samp{\myfig[]@{@}@{@}@{*@}@{@}}. Use square brackets for optional | |
3921 | arguments, a star to mark the label argument, if any. The macro does | |
3922 | not have to have a label argument - you could also use | |
cd19b06c | 3923 | @samp{\label@{...@}} inside one of its arguments. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3924 | |
3925 | Special names: @code{section} for section labels, @code{any} to define a | |
cd19b06c | 3926 | group which contains all labels. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3927 | |
3928 | This may also be a function to do local parsing and identify point to be | |
b93d35c9 | 3929 | in a non-standard label environment. The function must take an |
6bf7aab6 | 3930 | argument @var{bound} and limit backward searches to this value. It |
ae24815b | 3931 | should return either @code{nil} or a cons cell @code{(@var{function} |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3932 | . @var{position})} with the function symbol and the position where the |
3933 | special environment starts. See the Info documentation for an | |
cd19b06c | 3934 | example. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3935 | |
3936 | Finally this may also be @code{nil} if the entry is only meant to change | |
3937 | some settings associated with the type indicator character (see | |
cd19b06c | 3938 | below). |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3939 | |
3940 | @item @var{type-key} | |
3941 | Type indicator character, like @code{?t}, must be a printable ASCII | |
3942 | character. The type indicator is a single character which defines a | |
3943 | label type. Any label inside the environment or macro is assumed to | |
3944 | belong to this type. The same character may occur several times in this | |
3945 | list, to cover cases in which different environments carry the same | |
3946 | label type (like @code{equation} and @code{eqnarray}). If the type | |
3947 | indicator is @code{nil} and the macro has a label argument @samp{@{*@}}, | |
3948 | the macro defines neutral labels just like @code{\label}. In this case | |
cd19b06c | 3949 | the reminder of this entry is ignored. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3950 | |
3951 | @item @var{label-prefix} | |
3952 | Label prefix string, like @samp{tab:}. The prefix is a short string | |
3953 | used as the start of a label. It may be the empty string. The prefix | |
cd19b06c | 3954 | may contain the following @samp{%} escapes: |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3955 | |
3956 | @example | |
3957 | %f Current file name, directory and extension stripped. | |
3958 | %F Current file name relative to master file directory. | |
cd19b06c CD |
3959 | %m Master file name, directory and extension stripped. |
3960 | %M Directory name (without path) where master file is located. | |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3961 | %u User login name, on systems which support this. |
3962 | %S A section prefix derived with variable @code{reftex-section-prefixes}. | |
3963 | @end example | |
3964 | ||
3965 | @noindent | |
3966 | Example: In a file @file{intro.tex}, @samp{eq:%f:} will become | |
cd19b06c | 3967 | @samp{eq:intro:}. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3968 | |
3969 | @item @var{reference-format} | |
3970 | Format string for reference insert in buffer. @samp{%s} will be | |
3971 | replaced by the label. When the format starts with @samp{~}, this | |
3972 | @samp{~} will only be inserted when the character before point is | |
cd19b06c | 3973 | @emph{not} a whitespace. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3974 | |
3975 | @item @var{context-method} | |
3976 | Indication on how to find the short context. | |
3977 | @itemize @minus | |
3978 | @item | |
cd19b06c | 3979 | If @code{nil}, use the text following the @samp{\label@{...@}} macro. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3980 | @item |
3981 | If @code{t}, use | |
3982 | @itemize @minus | |
3983 | @item | |
3984 | the section heading for section labels. | |
3985 | @item | |
3986 | text following the @samp{\begin@{...@}} statement of environments (not | |
3987 | a good choice for environments like eqnarray or enumerate, where one has | |
cd19b06c | 3988 | several labels in a single environment). |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3989 | @item |
3990 | text after the macro name (starting with the first arg) for | |
cd19b06c | 3991 | macros. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3992 | @end itemize |
3993 | @item | |
3994 | If an integer, use the nth argument of the macro. As a special case, | |
cd19b06c | 3995 | 1000 means to get text after the last macro argument. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
3996 | @item |
3997 | If a string, use as regexp to search @emph{backward} from the label. | |
3998 | Context is then the text following the end of the match. E.g. putting | |
3999 | this to @samp{\\caption[[@{]} will use the caption in a figure or table | |
4000 | environment. @samp{\\begin@{eqnarray@}\|\\\\} works for | |
cd19b06c | 4001 | eqnarrays. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4002 | @item |
4003 | If any of @code{caption}, @code{item}, @code{eqnarray-like}, | |
4004 | @code{alignat-like}, this symbol will internally be translated into an | |
4005 | appropriate regexp (see also the variable | |
cd19b06c | 4006 | @code{reftex-default-context-regexps}). |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4007 | @item |
4008 | If a function, call this function with the name of the environment/macro | |
4009 | as argument. On call, point will be just after the @code{\label} macro. | |
4010 | The function is expected to return a suitable context string. It should | |
4011 | throw an exception (error) when failing to find context. As an example, | |
4012 | here is a function returning the 10 chars following the label macro as | |
cd19b06c | 4013 | context: |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4014 | |
4015 | @example | |
4016 | (defun my-context-function (env-or-mac) | |
4017 | (if (> (point-max) (+ 10 (point))) | |
4018 | (buffer-substring (point) (+ 10 (point))) | |
4019 | (error "Buffer too small"))) | |
4020 | @end example | |
4021 | @end itemize | |
4022 | ||
4023 | Label context is used in two ways by @b{Ref@TeX{}}: For display in the label | |
4024 | menu, and to derive a label string. If you want to use a different | |
4025 | method for each of these, specify them as a dotted pair. | |
4026 | E.g. @code{(nil . t)} uses the text after the label (@code{nil}) for | |
4027 | display, and text from the default position (@code{t}) to derive a label | |
cd19b06c | 4028 | string. This is actually used for section labels. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4029 | |
4030 | @item @var{magic-word-list} | |
4031 | List of magic words which identify a reference to be of this type. If | |
4032 | the word before point is equal to one of these words when calling | |
4033 | @code{reftex-reference}, the label list offered will be automatically | |
4034 | restricted to labels of the correct type. If the first element of this | |
4035 | word--list is the symbol `regexp', the strings are interpreted as regular | |
cd19b06c | 4036 | expressions. |
d4e1eea3 CD |
4037 | |
4038 | @item @var{toc-level} | |
4039 | The integer level at which this environment should be added to the table | |
4040 | of contents. See also @code{reftex-section-levels}. A positive value | |
4041 | will number the entries mixed with the sectioning commands of the same | |
4042 | level. A negative value will make unnumbered entries. Useful only for | |
4043 | theorem-like environments which structure the document. Will be ignored | |
4044 | for macros. When omitted or @code{nil}, no TOC entries will be | |
cd19b06c | 4045 | made. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4046 | @end table |
4047 | ||
4048 | If the type indicator characters of two or more entries are the same, | |
cd19b06c | 4049 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} will use |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4050 | @itemize @minus |
4051 | @item | |

4054 | the magic words of all involved entries. | |
4055 | @end itemize | |

4057 | Any list entry may also be a symbol. If that has an association in | |
4058 | @code{reftex-label-alist-builtin}, the @code{cddr} of that association is | |
4059 | spliced into the list. However, builtin defaults should normally be set | |
cd19b06c | 4060 | with the variable @code{reftex-default-label-alist-entries}. |

4063 | @defopt reftex-section-prefixes |
4064 | Prefixes for section labels. When the label prefix given in an entry in | |
4065 | @code{reftex-label-alist} contains @samp{%S}, this list is used to | |
4066 | determine the correct prefix string depending on the current section | |
4067 | level. The list is an alist, with each entry of the form | |
4068 | @w{@code{(@var{key} . @var{prefix})}}. Possible keys are sectioning macro | |
4069 | names like @samp{chapter}, integer section levels (as given in | |
4070 | @code{reftex-section-levels}), and @code{t} for the default. | |
4071 | @end defopt | |
4072 | ||
4073 | @defopt reftex-default-context-regexps | |
4074 | Alist with default regular expressions for finding context. The emacs | |
4075 | lisp form @w{@code{(format regexp (regexp-quote environment))}} is used | |
4076 | to calculate the final regular expression - so @samp{%s} will be | |
cd19b06c CD |
4077 | replaced with the environment or macro. |
4078 | @end defopt | |
4079 | ||
4080 | @defopt reftex-trust-label-prefix | |
4081 | Non-@code{nil} means, trust the label prefix when determining label type. | |
4082 | It is customary to use special label prefixes to distinguish different label | |
4083 | types. The label prefixes have no syntactic meaning in LaTeX (unless | |
4084 | special packages like fancyref) are being used. RefTeX can and by | |
4085 | default does parse around each label to detect the correct label type, | |
4086 | but this process can be slow when a document contains thousands of | |
4087 | labels. If you use label prefixes consistently, you may speed up | |
ae24815b | 4088 | document parsing by setting this variable to a non-@code{nil} value. RefTeX |
cd19b06c CD |
4089 | will then compare the label prefix with the prefixes found in |
4090 | `reftex-label-alist' and derive the correct label type in this way. | |
4091 | Possible values for this option are: | |
4092 | ||
4093 | @example | |
4094 | t @r{This means to trust any label prefixes found.} | |
4095 | regexp @r{If a regexp, only prefixes matched by the regexp are trusted.} | |
4096 | list @r{List of accepted prefixes, as strings. The colon is part of} | |
ae24815b | 4097 | @r{the prefix, e.g. ("fn:" "eqn:" "item:").} |
cd19b06c CD |
4098 | nil @r{Never trust a label prefix.} |
4099 | @end example | |
4100 | The only disadvantage of using this feature is that the label context | |
4101 | displayed in the label selection buffer along with each label is | |
4102 | simply some text after the label definition. This is no problem if you | |
4103 | place labels keeping this in mind (e.g. @i{before} the equation, @i{at | |
4104 | the beginning} of a fig/tab caption ...). Anyway, it is probably best | |
4105 | to use the regexp or the list value types to fine-tune this feature. | |
4106 | For example, if your document contains thousands of footnotes with | |
4107 | labels fn:xxx, you may want to set this variable to the value "^fn:$" or | |
4108 | ("fn:"). Then RefTeX will still do extensive parsing for any | |
4109 | non-footnote labels. | |

4119 | ||
4120 | @example | |
4121 | (@var{derive} @var{prompt}) | |
4122 | @end example | |
4123 | ||
4124 | If @var{derive}is @code{t}, @b{Ref@TeX{}} will try to derive a sensible | |
4125 | label from context. A section label for example will be derived from | |
2cbd16b9 | 4126 | the section heading. The conversion of the context to a valid label is |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4127 | governed by the specifications given in |
4128 | @code{reftex-derive-label-parameters}. If @var{derive} is @code{nil}, | |
4129 | the default label will consist of the prefix and a unique number, like | |
cd19b06c | 4130 | @samp{eq:23}. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4131 | |
4132 | If @var{prompt} is @code{t}, the user will be prompted for a label | |
4133 | string. When @var{prompt} is @code{nil}, the default label will be | |
cd19b06c | 4134 | inserted without query. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4135 | |
4136 | So the combination of @var{derive} and @var{prompt} controls label | |
cd19b06c | 4137 | insertion. Here is a table describing all four possibilities: |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4138 | |
4139 | @example | |
4140 | @group | |
4141 | @var{derive} @var{prompt} @var{action} | |
4142 | ----------------------------------------------------------- | |
4143 | nil nil @r{Insert simple label, like @samp{eq:22} or @samp{sec:13}. No query.} | |
4144 | nil t @r{Prompt for label.} | |
4145 | t nil @r{Derive a label from context and insert. No query.} | |
4146 | t t @r{Derive a label from context, prompt for confirmation.} | |
4147 | @end group | |
4148 | @end example | |
4149 | ||
4150 | Each flag may be set to @code{t}, @code{nil}, or a string of label type | |
4151 | letters indicating the label types for which it should be true. Thus, | |
4152 | the combination may be set differently for each label type. The default | |
4153 | settings @samp{"s"} and @samp{"sft"} mean: Derive section labels from | |
4154 | headings (with confirmation). Prompt for figure and table labels. Use | |
cd19b06c | 4155 | simple labels without confirmation for everything else. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4156 | |
4157 | The available label types are: @code{s} (section), @code{f} (figure), | |
4158 | @code{t} (table), @code{i} (item), @code{e} (equation), @code{n} | |
4159 | (footnote), @code{N} (endnote) plus any definitions in | |

4233 | @defopt reftex-label-menu-flags | |
4234 | List of flags governing the label menu makeup. The flags are: | |
4235 | @table @asis | |
4236 | @item @var{table-of-contents} | |
cd19b06c | 4237 | Show the labels embedded in a table of context. |
6bf7aab6 | 4238 | @item @var{section-numbers} |
cd19b06c | 4239 | Include section numbers (like 4.1.3) in table of contents. |
6bf7aab6 | 4240 | @item @var{counters} |
cd19b06c | 4241 | Show counters. This just numbers the labels in the menu. |
6bf7aab6 | 4242 | @item @var{no-context} |
cd19b06c | 4243 | Non-@code{nil} means do @emph{not} show the short context. |
6bf7aab6 | 4244 | @item @var{follow} |
cd19b06c | 4245 | Follow full context in other window. |
6bf7aab6 | 4246 | @item @var{show-commented} |
cd19b06c | 4247 | Show labels from regions which are commented out. |
6bf7aab6 | 4248 | @item @var{match-everywhere} |
cd19b06c | 4249 | Obsolete flag. |
6bf7aab6 | 4250 | @item @var{show-files} |
cd19b06c | 4251 | Show begin and end of included files. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4252 | @end table |
4253 | ||
4254 | Each of these flags can be set to @code{t} or @code{nil}, or to a string | |
4255 | of type letters indicating the label types for which it should be true. | |
4256 | These strings work like character classes in regular expressions. Thus, | |
4257 | setting one of the flags to @samp{"sf"} makes the flag true for section | |
4258 | and figure labels, @code{nil} for everything else. Setting it to | |
cd19b06c | 4259 | @samp{"^sf"} makes it the other way round. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4260 | |
4261 | The available label types are: @code{s} (section), @code{f} (figure), | |
4262 | @code{t} (table), @code{i} (item), @code{e} (equation), @code{n} | |
cd19b06c | 4263 | (footnote), plus any definitions in @code{reftex-label-alist}. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4264 | |
4265 | Most options can also be switched from the label menu itself - so if you | |
4266 | decide here to not have a table of contents in the label menu, you can | |
cd19b06c | 4267 | still get one interactively during selection from the label menu. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4268 | @end defopt |
4269 | ||
4270 | @defopt reftex-multiref-punctuation | |
4271 | Punctuation strings for multiple references. When marking is used in | |
4272 | the selection buffer to select several references, this variable | |
4273 | associates the 3 marking characters @samp{,-+} with prefix strings to be | |
4274 | inserted into the buffer before the corresponding @code{\ref} macro. | |
4275 | This is used to string together whole reference sets, like | |
4276 | @samp{eqs. 1,2,3-5,6 and 7} in a single call to | |
cd19b06c | 4277 | @code{reftex-reference}. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4278 | @end defopt |
4279 | ||
4280 | @defopt reftex-vref-is-default | |
4281 | Non-@code{nil} means, the varioref macro @code{\vref} is used as | |
4282 | default. In the selection buffer, the @kbd{v} key toggles the reference | |
4283 | macro between @code{\ref} and @code{\vref}. The value of this variable | |
4284 | determines the default which is active when entering the selection | |
4285 | process. Instead of @code{nil} or @code{t}, this may also be a string | |
4286 | of type letters indicating the label types for which it should be | |
cd19b06c | 4287 | true. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4288 | @end defopt |
4289 | ||
4290 | @defopt reftex-fref-is-default | |
4291 | Non-@code{nil} means, the fancyref macro @code{\fref} is used as | |
4292 | default. In the selection buffer, the @kbd{V} key toggles the reference | |
4293 | macro between @code{\ref}, @code{\fref} and @code{\Fref}. The value of | |
4294 | this variable determines the default which is active when entering the | |
4295 | selection process. Instead of @code{nil} or @code{t}, this may also be | |
4296 | a string of type letters indicating the label types for which it should | |
4297 | be true. | |
4298 | @end defopt | |
4299 | ||
4300 | @deffn Hook reftex-format-ref-function | |
4301 | If non-@code{nil}, should be a function which produces the string to | |
4302 | insert as a reference. Note that the insertion format can also be | |
4303 | changed with @code{reftex-label-alist}. This hook also is used by the | |
4304 | special commands to insert @code{\vref} and @code{\fref} references, so | |
4305 | even if you set this, your setting will be ignored by the special | |
4306 | commands. The function will be called with two arguments, the | |
4307 | @var{label} and the @var{default-format} (usually @samp{~\ref@{%s@}}). | |
cd19b06c | 4308 | It should return the string to insert into the buffer. |

4315 | @defopt reftex-guess-label-type | |
4316 | Non-@code{nil} means, @code{reftex-reference} will try to guess the | |
4317 | label type. To do that, @b{Ref@TeX{}} will look at the word before the | |
4318 | cursor and compare it with the magic words given in | |
4319 | @code{reftex-label-alist}. When it finds a match, @b{Ref@TeX{}} will | |
4320 | immediately offer the correct label menu - otherwise it will prompt you | |
4321 | for a label type. If you set this variable to @code{nil}, @b{Ref@TeX{}} | |
cd19b06c | 4322 | will always prompt for a label type. |

4369 | using @code{reftex-citation} in non-LaTeX files. The files will be | |
cd19b06c | 4370 | searched along the BIBINPUTS or TEXBIB path. |
6bf7aab6 DL |

6bf7aab6 DL |
4376 | @example |
4377 | nil @r{Do not sort entries.} | |
4378 | author @r{Sort entries by author name.} | |

4381 | @end example | |
4382 | @end defopt | |
4383 | ||
4384 | @defopt reftex-cite-format | |
4385 | The format of citations to be inserted into the buffer. It can be a | |
4386 | string, an alist or a symbol. In the simplest case this is just the string | |
4387 | @samp{\cite@{%l@}}, which is also the default. See the definition of | |
cd19b06c | 4388 | @code{reftex-cite-format-builtin} for more complex examples. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4389 | |
4390 | If @code{reftex-cite-format} is a string, it will be used as the format. | |
cd19b06c | 4391 | In the format, the following percent escapes will be expanded. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4392 | |
4393 | @table @code | |
4394 | @item %l | |
4395 | The BibTeX label of the citation. | |
4396 | @item %a | |
4397 | List of author names, see also @code{reftex-cite-punctuation}. | |
4398 | @item %2a | |
4399 | Like %a, but abbreviate more than 2 authors like Jones et al. | |
4400 | @item %A | |
4401 | First author name only. | |
4402 | @item %e | |
4403 | Works like @samp{%a}, but on list of editor names. (@samp{%2e} and | |
cd19b06c | 4404 | @samp{%E} work a well). |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4405 | @end table |
4406 | ||
4407 | It is also possible to access all other BibTeX database fields: | |
4408 | ||
4409 | @example | |
4410 | %b booktitle %c chapter %d edition %h howpublished | |
4411 | %i institution %j journal %k key %m month | |
4412 | %n number %o organization %p pages %P first page | |
4413 | %r address %s school %u publisher %t title | |
4414 | %v volume %y year | |
4415 | %B booktitle, abbreviated %T title, abbreviated | |
4416 | @end example | |
4417 | ||
4418 | @noindent | |
4419 | Usually, only @samp{%l} is needed. The other stuff is mainly for the | |
cd19b06c | 4420 | echo area display, and for @code{(setq reftex-comment-citations t)}. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4421 | |
4422 | @samp{%<} as a special operator kills punctuation and space around it | |
cd19b06c CD |
4423 | after the string has been formatted. |
4424 | ||
4425 | A pair of square brackets indicates an optional argument, and RefTeX | |
4426 | will prompt for the values of these arguments. | |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4427 | |
4428 | Beware that all this only works with BibTeX database files. When | |
4429 | citations are made from the @code{\bibitems} in an explicit | |
cd19b06c | 4430 | @code{thebibliography} environment, only @samp{%l} is available. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4431 | |
4432 | If @code{reftex-cite-format} is an alist of characters and strings, the | |
4433 | user will be prompted for a character to select one of the possible | |
cd19b06c | 4434 | format strings. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4435 | |
4436 | In order to configure this variable, you can either set | |
4437 | @code{reftex-cite-format} directly yourself or set it to the | |
4438 | @emph{symbol} of one of the predefined styles. The predefined symbols | |
4439 | are those which have an association in the constant | |
4440 | @code{reftex-cite-format-builtin}) E.g.: @code{(setq reftex-cite-format | |
cd19b06c | 4441 | 'natbib)}. |

4447 | with the variable @code{reftex-cite-format}. The function will be | |
4448 | called with two arguments, the @var{citation-key} and the | |
4449 | @var{default-format} (taken from @code{reftex-cite-format}). It should | |

4460 | t @r{Always prompt} | |
4461 | maybe @r{Prompt only if @code{reftex-citation} was called with C-u prefix arg}@end example | |

6bf7aab6 DL |
4532 | @end lisp |
4533 | ||
4534 | @var{macro} is the macro. Arguments should be denoted by empty braces, | |
4535 | as for example in @samp{\index[]@{*@}}. Use square brackets to denote | |
cd19b06c | 4536 | optional arguments. The star marks where the index key is. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4537 | |
4538 | @var{index-tag} is a short name of the index. @samp{idx} and @samp{glo} | |
4539 | are reserved for the default index and the glossary. Other indices can | |
4540 | be defined as well. If this is an integer, the Nth argument of the | |
cd19b06c | 4541 | macro holds the index tag. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4542 | |
4543 | @var{key} is a character which is used to identify the macro for input | |

4549 | @code{\newcommand@{\molec@}[1]@{#1\index@{Molecules!#1@}}, this prefix | |
cd19b06c | 4550 | should be @samp{Molecules!}. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4551 | |
4552 | @var{exclude} can be a function. If this function exists and returns a | |
42187e99 | 4553 | non-@code{nil} value, the index entry at point is ignored. This was |
6bf7aab6 | 4554 | implemented to support the (deprecated) @samp{^} and @samp{_} shortcuts |
cd19b06c | 4555 | in the LaTeX2e @code{index} package. |
6bf7aab6 | 4556 | |
d4e1eea3 CD |
4557 | @var{repeat}, if non-@code{nil}, means the index macro does not typeset |
4558 | the entry in the text, so that the text has to be repeated outside the | |
4559 | index macro. Needed for @code{reftex-index-selection-or-word} and for | |
cd19b06c | 4560 | indexing from the phrase buffer. |
d4e1eea3 | 4561 | |
6bf7aab6 DL |

d4e1eea3 | 4579 | This is a list with @code{(@var{macro-key} @var{default-tag})}. |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4580 | |
4581 | @var{macro-key} is a character identifying an index macro - see | |
4582 | @code{reftex-index-macros}. | |
4583 | ||
4584 | @var{default-tag} is the tag to be used if the macro requires a | |
4585 | @var{tag} argument. When this is @code{nil} and a @var{tag} is needed, | |
4586 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} will ask for it. When this is the empty string and the | |
4587 | TAG argument of the index macro is optional, the TAG argument will be | |
cd19b06c | 4588 | omitted. |

4591 | @defopt reftex-index-default-tag | |
4592 | Default index tag. When working with multiple indexes, RefTeX queries | |
4593 | for an index tag when creating index entries or displaying a specific | |
4594 | index. This variable controls the default offered for these queries. | |
4595 | The default can be selected with @key{RET} during selection or | |
2cbd16b9 | 4596 | completion. Valid values of this variable are: |
6bf7aab6 DL |
4597 | @example |
4598 | nil @r{Do not provide a default index} | |
4599 | "tag" @r{The default index tag given as a string, e.g. "idx"} | |

4604 | @defopt reftex-index-math-format | |
4605 | Format of index entries when copied from inside math mode. When | |
4606 | @code{reftex-index-selection-or-word} is executed inside TeX math mode, | |
4607 | the index key copied from the buffer is processed with this format | |
4608 | string through the @code{format} function. This can be used to add the | |
4609 | math delimiters (e.g. @samp{$}) to the string. Requires the | |

4618 | @defopt reftex-index-phrases-logical-and-regexp |
4619 | Regexp matching the @samp{and} operator for index arguments in phrases | |
4620 | file. When several index arguments in a phrase line are separated by | |
4621 | this operator, each part will generate an index macro. So each match of | |
4622 | the search phrase will produce @emph{several} different index entries. | |
4623 | Make sure this does no match things which are not separators. This | |
4624 | logical @samp{and} has higher priority than the logical @samp{or} | |
cd19b06c | 4625 | specified in @code{reftex-index-phrases-logical-or-regexp}. |

4629 | Regexp matching the @samp{or} operator for index arguments in phrases | |
4630 | file. When several index arguments in a phrase line are separated by | |
4631 | this operator, the user will be asked to select one of them at each | |
4632 | match of the search phrase. The first index arg will be the default. A | |
4633 | number key @kbd{1}--@kbd{9} must be pressed to switch to another. Make | |
4634 | sure this does no match things which are not separators. The logical | |
4635 | @samp{and} specified in @code{reftex-index-phrases-logical-or-regexp} | |
cd19b06c | 4636 | has higher priority than this logical @samp{or}. |

4639 | @defopt reftex-index-phrases-search-whole-words | |
4640 | Non-@code{nil} means phrases search will look for whole words, not subwords. | |
4641 | This works by requiring word boundaries at the beginning and end of | |
4642 | the search string. When the search phrase already has a non-word-char | |
4643 | at one of these points, no word boundary is required there. | |

4657 | Non-@code{nil} means, skip matches which appear to be indexed already. | |
4658 | When doing global indexing from the phrases buffer, searches for some | |
4659 | phrases may match at places where that phrase was already indexed. In | |
4660 | particular when indexing an already processed document again, this | |
4661 | will even be the norm. When this variable is non-@code{nil}, | |
4662 | @b{Ref@TeX{}} checks if the match is an index macro argument, or if an | |
4663 | index macro is directly before or after the phrase. If that is the | |

4667 | @defopt reftex-index-phrases-wrap-long-lines | |
4668 | Non-@code{nil} means, when indexing from the phrases buffer, wrap lines. | |
4669 | Inserting indexing commands in a line makes the line longer - often | |
4670 | so long that it does not fit onto the screen. When this variable is | |
4671 | non-@code{nil}, newlines will be added as necessary before and/or after the | |
4672 | indexing command to keep lines short. However, the matched text | |

4676 | @defopt reftex-index-phrases-sort-prefers-entry | |
4677 | Non-@code{nil} means when sorting phrase lines, the explicit index entry | |
4678 | is used. Phrase lines in the phrases buffer contain a search phrase, and | |
4679 | sorting is normally based on these. Some phrase lines also have | |
4680 | an explicit index argument specified. When this variable is | |
cd19b06c | 4681 | non-@code{nil}, the index argument will be used for sorting. |

4977 | buffers associated with that label category are emptied, in order to | |
4978 | force an update upon next use. When @code{nil}, the buffers are left | |
4979 | alone and have to be updated by hand, with the @kbd{g} key from the | |
