Re: Tips for New WDSC Installations

Susan and I have just published our "Top 5" list of things we always do

when

installing a new copy of WDSC.

We'd like to encourage other WDSC users to submit their own favourites

to

add to the list.

One of the first things I do when customizing a WDSC install is to set up
my pet keyboard shortcuts for the LPEX editor. LPEX keyboard shortcuts
are set up in Preferences -> LPEX Editor -> User Key Actions. You have to
make sure to click the Set button, apply alone will not work.
Capitalization is important for the action names. The two that I
particularly like are:

1. Key: Alt-Shift-F
Action: blockFill - after setting this up, select a block of text
(Alt-R on the top-left and bottom-right corners). Alt-Shift-F will work
the same as right-click->Selected->Fill Selection

2 Key: Alt-Shift-S
Action: splitAndShift - similar to a 'normal' split (Alt-S), but
instead of the new line of text starting all the way to the left, spaces
are automatically inserted so the split text starts just below where it
was before. I find this saves some time when splitting up long procedure
calls and other long lines.


Most of the LPEX functions that you can do by right-clicking something in
the editor are available as actions. All you need to do is figure out the
correct action names for your favourites, and you can have quick access to
them without touching the mouse!
