Mailing List Guidelines


      WinEdt Mailing List Guidelines
      ==============================

   These guidelines are sent to the WinEdt Mailing List once a month.
   Please keep them in mind when posting to the list.

   ---------------------------------------------------------------------

* What To Post

   The WinEdt Mailing List is for questions about the WinEdt editor. You
   should  not post questions concerning LaTeX, MiKTeX, BibTeX et al. to
   the mailing list. WinEdt is a shell/editor for  LaTeX  etc.  and  the
   list  is  intended  to  answer questions concerning WinEdt, not LaTeX
   etc.
   (Sometimes it might be difficult  to  decide  whether  a  problem  is
   related to WinEdt or to MiKTeX, LaTeX etc. A rule of thumb is: If you
   are having the same  problems  when  running  the  program  from  the
   command line, it is NOT related to WinEdt.)

   A lot of questions are being asked over and over  again.  Check  that
   your question isn't already answered in the WinEdt FAQ at
      <http://www.winedt.org/Doc/FAQ>
   or in the mailing list archives at
      <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WinEdt>.

   When sending a question to the mailing list, try to be specific.
   Include (at least)
     + the Build number of your WinEdt (see "Help | About WinEdt...")

shell escape?

I'm trying to do some graphical conversions in LaTeX (using dot2texi, 
amongst other packages). However, I get error messages when I compile to 
the effect that 'Shell escape isn't enabled'.

At one point I thought I knew how to do this, but I don't remember the mechanics - can 
someone remind me of how to flip the switch in WinEdt to allow shell 
escapes for LaTeX and PDFeTeX compiles?

Thanks!

If you're using MiKTeX, invoke latex with

-enable-write18

Re: shell escape?

Merci - I'll give that a try.

switch from,English to Russian ин ВинЕдт

Dear users of WinEdt,

I have installed WinEdt 5.5 + Windows XP and a switch from
English to Russian. This switch is working in Microsoft Word and
not working in WinEdt.

What should I do to be able to switch from English to Russian
in WinEdt?

Thank you in advance,

V. V. Goldberg

WinEdt is not a UNICODE application.

However, you have two possibilities to properly display text in
Windows Russian Code Page:

1. Options -> Fonts -> Cyrillic Charset

2. Make sure that the option Language Sensitive Script is
enabled in Options -> Settings.

(1) is probably a better solution...

This advice assumes that you can type Russian in WinEdt (after
switching a Keyboard Layout in WinEdt) but the displayed
characters show 8-bit characters corresponding to the default
code page on your machine (probably Western). Changing the font
charset in WinEdt Options should remedy this. Otherwise you
should explain in detail what you want and what happens.

Best regards,

alex

Re: switch from,English to Russian ин ВинЕдт

Dear Alex,

Thanks. Following your advice, I was able to get Russian
on my PC where I still have WinEdt 5.3.

However, on my laptop where I have WinEdt 5.5, I am getting Russian fonts
but with different location of letters. For example, on PC I am getting

qwerty=яверты

and on the laptop I am getting

qwerty=йцукен

I am accustomed to the first one:

qwerty=яверты

Best regards,

Vladislav

Create a "qwerty" file, one that contains qwerty in Russian, with
the wrong glyphs in your laptop and transfer it to your PC and see
how it looks there.

You should also start WinEdt's (Tools menu) Character Map on both
machines and see if they display the same characters. Perhaps you
have to choose a different font on your laptop, because it's
possible not all Windows fonts support all Windows' code pages.

There is no difference between 5.3 and 5.5 in this regard.
Comparing with Word doesn't help because Word uses Windows'
Unicode...

Dear Alex,

The answer: it looks on PC exactly as on the laptop

You should also start WinEdt's (Tools menu) Character Map on both
machines and see if they display the same characters. Perhaps you
have to choose a different font on your laptop, because it's
possible not all Windows fonts support all Windows' code pages.

Character Map is different on 2 computers: on PC it has 6 lines while
on the laptrop only 4 lines.

On PC I have

ACSCII: 252 HEX:  FC

and on the laptop

ACSCII: 237: HEX  ED

Best,

Vladislav

Re: [WinEdt] switch from,English to Russian ин ВинЕдт

I have just started Notepad, switched Keybord to Russion and typed querty. 
Both Notepad and WinEdt show the same string (the one that you don't like). 
Case closed as far as WinEdt is concerned but let us know what you find 
out...
