Latex-Suite provides a rich set of mappings to insert, enclose and modify
LaTeX commands.
<div class="section" title="3.2.1 Inserting LaTeX commands"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="inserting-commands"></a>3.2.1 Inserting LaTeX commands</h4></div></div></div><a id="ls-imap-f7"></a><a id="ls-imap-s-f7"></a><p>
Pressing <code class="literal"><F7></code> in insert or normal mode while
the cursor is touching a word will insert a command formed from the
word touching the cursor.
</p><p>
For certain common commands, Latex-Suite will expand them to include
additional arguments as needed. For example, <code class="literal">frac</code>
becomes <code class="literal">\frac{<++>}{<++>}<++></code>. Otherwise, it will
simply change the word under the cursor as follows
</p><pre class="programlisting">word --> \word{<++>}<++></pre><p>
You can define custom expansions
of commands using the <code class="literal">Tex_Com_{name}</code> setting as
described in <a class="link" href="customizing-macros.html#Tex_Com_name" title="11.3.2 Tex_Com_name">here</a>.
</p><p>
If <code class="literal"><F7></code> is pressed when the cursor is on
white-space, then Latex-Suite will prompt you to choose a command and insert
that instead.The list of commands is constructed from the <a class="link" href="customizing-macros.html#Tex_PromptedCommands" title="11.3.12 g:Tex_PromptedCommands"><code class="literal">g:Tex_PromptedCommands</code></a>
setting and also from commands which Latex-Suite finds while scanning custom
packages which Latex-Suite finds. See the <a class="link" href="package-actions.html" title="4.2 Actions taken for supported packages">Package actions</a> section for details
on which files are scanned etc.

You can select a portion of text visually and press
<code class="literal"><F7></code> while still in visual mode. This will
prompt you with a list of commands. (This list can be customized
via the <a class="link" href="customizing-macros.html#Tex_PromptedCommands" title="11.3.12 g:Tex_PromptedCommands">g:Tex_PromptedCommands</a>
setting). You can either choose from this list or type in a new
command name. Once the selection is done, Latex-Suite encloses the
visually selected portion in the chosen command.
</p></div><div class="section" title="3.2.3 Changing commands"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="changing-commands"></a>3.2.3 Changing commands</h4></div></div></div><a id="ls-vmap-f7"></a><p>
In both insert and normal mode <code class="literal"><S-F7></code> will
find out if you are presently within an environment and then prompt you
with a list of commands to change it to.
