macro latex loads WinEdt WinEdt macro LaTEX package highlight keyword

dynamicLaTeX Description

The dynamicLaTeX macro will dynamically load additional dictionaries for LaTEX packages used in the current document. Word completion (default shortcut: CTRL-ENTER) can make life much easier. WinEdt already knows about all TEX and the standard LaTEX macros. However, when you use additional LaTEX packages or other classes than the default ones, you are on your own. This macro expands WinEdt's knowledge of LaTEX macros. It will analyze your preamble and load dictionaries containing of all user macros for the class and all packages it finds (and which it knows about). Thus, the macros of these packages will be available for word completion. Furthermore, it will add user-defined macros to the dictionary. It can also highlight these additional keywords. Furthermore, if you are using the babel package, this macro can automatically set the current document's mode corresponding to the used language, by scanning babel's options. Installation: Extract the zip file in %b\Config\TeX\ and run the macro _install_dynamicLaTeX.edt. If you are upgrading this package, you can simply install it over the old version. You can install the macro as the response to the MDI Activate event. This means, that you don't have to bother updating the dictionaries yourself but they will automatically be updated, whenever you activate a file in TEX mode. On reasonably modern hardware, this should work so fast that it will hardly be noticeable. If you don't choose this installation option, dictionaries have to be updated with the menu entry Tools | Update Dynamic Keywords. Independently, you can set whether the document's mode and highlighting should be updated when activating the document, or only when calling the menu entry Tools | Update Dynamic Keywords, or not at all.
