Hi,

For some time I have been working on a script for context aware
autocompletion in texworks.
The script is available from github [1] and documentation can be
downloaded from [2].
With this mail I request input on how the script can be prepared for
additional users.
To see the script in action, a short video has been uploaded to [3].

Best regards,
Henrik Skov Midtiby

Howdy,

Ummm... doesn't this sort of thing already exist in TeXworks? Doesn't do the context sensitive labelling but will put in markers for arguments and a you can jump to the arguments easily.

Good Luck,

The video looks amazing! I'll definitely check the script out when I
have a little more time.

Cheers,

PS @Herb Schulz: Yes, Tw has autocompletion, but it's currently not
context-aware (no completion for references, citations, etc.). This is
by design, as on the C++ code side, Tw is designed to work with all
variants of TeX, not just LaTeX. For those particular needs, scripting
was included.
