Let's say I am at pg-13 of a fourty page document. At this point if I
do, Document -> Update -> All, the cursor is moved from pg-13 to the
end of the file. I really hate this. May be it is just me! Everytime
I do document->update->all, I have to navigate my way to the original
position. Is there any way to preserve the cursor position when we do
document->update->all ?


You would need to wrap the Scheme code triggered
by "document->update->all" between :
[[
(let ((old-pos (cursor-path))
)
...code for "document->update->all"...
(go-to old-pos))
]]


but for this, you would need to hack the standard
TeXmacs files that define the menu. Another way
would be to define a keyboard shortcut that does
the (let ...) above. For more info about keyboard
shortcuts (& TeXmacs plugins), you can look :

]]
