The difference is that in the FasTeX Shortcuts no backslash keystroke is required-shortcut names are made up of alphabetic characters located on the three main rows of the QWERTY keyboard. A different collection of shortcuts for TeX commands have been defined by Herb Schulz in the Command Completion Menu that is available in TeXShop, an editor that is included in the MacTeX.pkg, available from the TeX Users Group website.
emacs file and latex-abbrev.el files can be downloaded from his websiteĪnother way to implement shortcuts to avoid redefining macro commands and making your source document readable is:Ĭommand Completion (Applescript Macros + a Custom CommandCompletion text file).
#TYPEIT4ME MAC MAC OS#
The FasTeX shortcuts system can be implemented into VIM-LaTeX, if you wish to add the FasTeX abbreviations to your collection.Īri Stern has integrated the FasTeX Shortcut System into his emacs environment on Mac OS X. It uses a different convention for default set of shortcuts and is probably more sophisticated, and it is definitely worth a try if you are user of the VIM editor. However a LaTeX2e revision was released in (1998) to switch from \documentstyle to \documentclass etc.įortunately for VI users there is now a VIM-LaTeX plugin available at. Due to other distractions, there was no time to continue work on this project but the shortcuts should still work. The description and documentation can be found at the original FasTeX website for LaTeX created in 1996. In 1995, the same set of shortcuts was implemented to work with the VI editor on Unix Systems. No backslash or other special characters need to be typed. Its greatest merit is that only lowercase letters of the alphabet are used in combination to create abbreviations (shortcut names). The booklet describing the shortcut system is available here.
#TYPEIT4ME MAC FOR MAC OS#
The FASTEX shortcut system was developed by Jerry and Barbara Marsden for use with TypeIt4Me for Mac OS 9 in 1993.
#TYPEIT4ME MAC FOR MAC OS X#
TypeIt4Me Version 10.5 is for Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) and higher.įor Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) use TypeIt4Me 4.2.1. TypeIt4Me is available at the webpage of Riccardo Ettore. These shortcuts will work for Mac OS 9 and X.
scu file can also be used as a look up reference for the shortcut definitions. zip contains : the shortcuts for the Mac, and, which is the shortcuts file for Unix with the VI editor. Save time and effort with TypeIt4Me!Ĥ.Can be downloaded here: It even works with awkwardly lengthy, hard to spell technical terms and boilerplate texts like legal contracts.

TypeIt4Me makes it easy to create shortcuts that expand to longer words, phrases or pictures. How much time do you think you'd save if you were even just 10% faster? Probably a lot. TypeIt4Me is the original text expander for Mac, saving people time and keystrokes for 25 years! Consider how much you type on your Mac.
