Hi again,

I'm back with my exercise database question.

Trying Aleksandr's first approach, i run into a couple of problems :

   - how do I include a large number of files, something like mypath/chapter8/*.tm or a large selection of files like 8.5->8.25 ?

   - using folds, it does not seem possible to act on the folds from within the master document. Maybe the only solution would be to run a

     shell script to change all '<unfold-env' chains of characters to '<fold-env' in all the files concerned, but I'm afraid of a mistake that could 

     corrupt the TeXmacs macros.

Thanks

Julien

I think there are several approaches.

1) You can put each problem in it's own TeXmacs file and include the ones you want in the master document using Insert > Link > Include... .

2) If you want to define all the problems in the same document you can do so in the preamble. If you put an assign tag in the preamble, e.g. <assign|p1|My Problem Text>, you can include in the main document as <p1>.

Numbering you get for free by inserting Question environments, for example, using Insert > Enunciation > Question.

Hi,
does anyone know if there is a simple way to create exercise databases with texmacs with the possibility
to select and extract some exercises out of the lot and then automatically create a document with the chosen exercises ?
Hope that's clear.
More generally, select some items out of a collection and create a new document listing the selected items. (Besides manually copy/pasting each, of course...)
(Re-)numbering of the items would be great.
Thanks

ps : sorry for double-posting this on the texmacs-edu list and here, I'm not sure if that one is working yet (no archive available).
