Keybindings

Keybindings

Feel free to add your own keybindings.

This is a collection keybindings, which are useful to work with LaTeX, but are not included in LaTeXTools yet.

You can copy them to your Keybindings - User file and use them.

Note that all User keybindings need to be wrapped in [ ], or there will be a parsing error.

Here are the keybindings:

    // Auto-pair escaped curly brackets

Note: Some keybindings depend on a a macro. If you use the keybindings, which depend on a macro also create the a file Delete Left Right Twice.sublime-macro in your Sublime Text User directory and add the content:

[
    {
        "args": {"file": "Packages/Default/Delete Left Right.sublime-macro"},
        "command": "run_macro_file"
    },
    {
        "args": {"file": "Packages/Default/Delete Left Right.sublime-macro"},
        "command": "run_macro_file"
    }
]
