This menu is created under <code class="literal">TeX-Suite > Packages > Supported</code>. This menu contains a list of packages "supported" by Latex-Suite. When you choose one of the packages from this menu (for example the <code class="literal">amsmath</code> package), then a line of the form </p><pre class="programlisting">\usepackage[<++>]{amsmath}<++></pre><p> will be inserted into the current file. </p><p> The <code class="literal">\usepackage</code> line can also be inserted in an easy manner in the current file by pressing <code class="literal"><F5></code> while in the preamble of the current document. This will set up a prompt from the supported packages and ask you to choose from one of them. If you do not find the package you want to insert in the list, you can type in a package-name and it will use that. Pressing <code class="literal"><F5></code> in the preamble on a line containing a single word will construct a <code class="literal">\usepackage</code> line from that word. </p><p> You can also use the <a class="link" href="latex-suite-commands.html#TPackage" title="10.2.5 :TPackage [{package, ...}]"><code class="literal">TPackage</code></a> to insert the <code class="literal">\usepackage</code> line. </p><p> Once you have inserted a <code class="literal">\usepackage</code> line, for supported packages, you can use the Options and Commands menus described in the <a class="link" href="package-actions.html" title="4.2 Actions taken for supported packages">next section</a>. </p></div><div class="navfooter"><hr></hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="latex-packages.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="latex-packages.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="package-actions.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">4 Package Handling </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> 4.2 Actions taken for supported packages</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
