hello,
Object : TeX , Latex , theme and language
i have some problems with TeX , Latex and language
1) \newcommand*{\twoptoff}{\ifnum \catcode`:=13 \catcode`:=12
13 and 12 are not in the same color
2) When i use xkeyval package i 've the name of the macro like this :
\define@boolkey : define and @boolkey are not in the same color
3) \protected@edef@tempa @ in one color , tempa in the same color that edef
4) \def@@vertex#1{... @ in one color the second @vertex in an other color
5) i've an other question about completion with LaTeX. What is the good way for me if i want to complete easily newcounter, setcounter, newcommand, usepackage \define@boolkey etc .....
Greetings
Alain
Hi Alain,
This has nothing to do with themes. Themes do determine how things are colored, but it is the syntax that determines what *can* be colored by assigning scopes to things, and your questions all relate to things possibly not being scoped properly.

Shouldn't there be a \ in front of :=13 ?

All these are essentially the same question, and it has to do with dealing with @. At the moment we are not allowing @ as part of a command. I thought it was a character to avoid in LaTeX. Can you explain a bit what all the above stand for syntactically, i.e. what pieces are together and what they represent? I am personally not too familiar with the uses of @.

I would suggest using the "Edit Configuration File" command, and adding your own commands and shortcuts there. Would that meet the case for you, or do you really want to use esc for completion, instead of the "insert command based..." command?

yes i understand that. I try to change some little things in the tex and latex language but it takes too much time to do that very fine.
- \newcommand*{\twoptoff}{\ifnum \catcode`:=13 \catcode`:=12

arghhhh ... yes \catcode`:=13 one big error for me :) and the syntax color is very important to see this kind of errors !!
\define@boolkey : define and @boolkey are not in the same color 3) \protected@edef@tempa @ in one color , tempa in the same color that edef 4) \def@@vertex#1{... @ in one color the second @vertex in an other color

Yes with @ we can protect a macro because the user needs to put \makeatletter and \makeatother in his code if he wants to use @
examples :
the source of latex.ltx or article.cls
\newboolean{@twopt} \setboolean{@twopt}{false}
\newcommand*{\Vertex}[1][]{@vertex[#1]}%
\Vertex is the command for the user but @vertex is the macro in the package

I use the two ways and a three one (typeit4me) but i really want to use esc for things like
newcounter, newcommand
