[TxMt] Re: LaTeX Bundle: Wrap in left...right

[Ruben Debeerst]

The command you posted didn't work for me. It didn't copy the selected text.

Try this one:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
sel = STDIN.read.chomp
if ( sel =~ /^\\?\{(.+)\\?\}$/)
  print "\\left\\{#{$1}\\right\\}";
elsif ( sel =~ /^(.)(.+)(.)$/)
  print "\\left#{$1}#{$2}\\right#{$3}";
end

It will do
{abc}     -> \left\{abc\right\}
\{abc\}   -> \left\{abc\right\}
and
[abc]     -> \left[abc\right]
where in the latter case also other characters than [ ] will work.
