Dear Michele,

 yes, there should be a shortcut to insert an equation array, but indeed it seems broken also on my version of TeXmacs. I should investigate why...

You can always define new shortcuts which suits your needs, for example check the nice tutorial in TeXmacs website:

http://www.texmacs.org/tmweb/documents/tutorials/TeXmacs-customization.pdf

Implementing a custom shortcut for your need is easy. The following scheme code does it:

(kbd-map (:mode in-math?) ("e q a ." (make 'eqnarray)))

This command means that when you type “eqa.” in math mode, then the tag \eqnarray is inserted at the cursor position.

You have to insert the code in a scheme session, but it will not persist from session to session. A way to make it permanent is to add it to your personal initialisation file which on Linux and MacOSX should be

~/.TeXmacs/progs/my-init-texmacs.scm

(I’m not sure what it is on Windows)

Best

Max

Hi Michele

I am not sure what you call an alias. If you are looking for a shortcut (i.e. a key combination), it is available from the menu Insert > mathematics > Several equations.

At least for MacOS, this shortcut is broken since the last version 1.99-9: I have reported the bug, and it will hopefully be restored in the next version,

Hi all,

how can I create an alias for the command "eqnarray", for example the shorter "eqa"?

Thank you,

Michele
