Here is a method for dynamically expanding acronyms from what you have already typed. It also provides other methods for grabbing useful text and copying it to where you are editing most usefully when you are typing LaTeX.
As examples if you call `magpie-expand' after typing ",hiam" this string would be replaced by "here is a method" (in the present buffer: see first paragraph). If you typed ",hiam3" this would expand to "here is a method for dynamically expanding" as would "her6". See the file http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/MagpieExpansion for other expansion methods and for explanations of the above examples. Acronyms are also useful for specifying symbols in Emacs Lisp quickly and magpie.el also provides lisp-specific expansion methods and three functions `magpie-execute-extended-command', `magpie-describe- function' and `magpie-describe-variable' which behave as you would expect. Thus after binding the first of these to M-X you would type M-XecbRET to run `eval-current-buffer'. _______________________________________________ gnu-emacs-sources mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-emacs-sources
