In particular, it would solve some problems involving markup defined in a parent node and used in child nodes. vr doesn't see the parent markup when rendering the child. However, I have no plans for any such thing at present. Just a tad busy with other things. EKR -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups leo-editor group.

Such scripts can be fantastically helpful. For example, here is the contents of @button make-sphinx in LeoDocs.leo:: @language python import os trace = True g.cls() c.setComplexCommand('make-sphinx') if c.isChanged(): c.save() aList = c.rstCommands.rst3() if aList: path = g.os_path_finalize_join(g.app.loadDir,'..','doc','html') os.chdir(path) if len(aList) 1: g.execute_shell_commands('make clean',trace=trace) g.execute_shell_commands('make html',trace=trace) fn = aList[0].h.strip() if len(aList) == 1 else 'leo_toc.html' fn = g.os_path_finalize_join(path,'_build','html',g.os_path_basename(fn)) if g.os_path_exists(fn): # Don't wait for this command to exit! g.execute_shell_commands(['%s' % (fn)],trace=trace) BTW, c.setComplexCommand('make-sphinx') allows me to type Ctrl-P (repeat-complex-command) to execute this script again. make-sphinx uses external processes. From your description, you may not have to do that. In any case, 20 minutes spent writing such a script will transform your workflow. It did for me. HTH.

Re: viewrendered.py Question
I created an @auto node to read the interim rst file. This works, but still requires me to run rst3 and navigate to the @auto node. I do not seem to be able to access lock-unlock-rendering-pane, one of the commands from viewrendered.py. In fact, none of the commands from this plugin appear to work in the minibuffer for me. If I could lock the pane to the @auto node, then it would be simply the chore of me figuring out how to create a script/button to automate this.

Re: viewrendered.py Question
That works as far as it goes. vr-lock locks the current view of the rendering pane. In order to update the view I must unlock it and relock it, which means I must navigate to the @auto node which negates the purpose. Having it live is the goal.

Re: viewrendered.py Question
I wrote a quick @button script for you, to help you out. Put this in an '@button update-vr' node somewhere in your outline: @language python ''' usage: 1. modify nodename below to exactly match the headline of the node you wish vr to render (your @auto node) 2. modify rstnodename below to exactly match the headline of your @rst node 3. Alt-X vr 4. Alt-X vr-lock 5. Click this button 'update-vr' any time to re-render the target node ''' nodename = '@auto myfile.rst' rstnodename = '@rst myfile.html' current_v = p.v c.selectPosition(g.findNodeAnywhere(c,rstnodename)) c.executeMinibufferCommand('rst3') c.readAtAutoNodes() c.selectPosition(g.findNodeAnywhere(c,nodename)) c.executeMinibufferCommand('vr-update') c.selectPosition(c.vnode2Position(current_v)) Be sure to change nodename to match the headline of the @auto node you created. This should combine steps 2, 3, and 4 into a single click, with no navigation, and drop you down back on the node you were editing prior to clicking the button. Beware: this has the side-effect of reloading *all* @auto nodes in the current outline. Shouldn't be a huge deal, but just be aware. Take backups before you try this.

I'll save it as a snippet right now and modify it and run it on a copy of my data.

Put this in an '@button update-vr' node somewhere in your outline: @language python ''' usage: 1. modify nodename below to exactly match the headline of the node you wish vr to render (your @auto node) 2. modify rstnodename below to exactly match the headline of your @rst node 3. Alt-X vr 4. Alt-X vr-lock 5. Click this button 'update-vr' any time to re-render the target node ''' nodename = '@auto myfile.rst' rstnodename = '@rst myfile.html' current_v = p.v c.selectPosition(g.findNodeAnywhere(c,rstnodename)) c.executeMinibufferCommand('rst3') c.readAtAutoNodes() c.selectPosition(g.findNodeAnywhere(c,nodename)) c.executeMinibufferCommand('vr-update') c.selectPosition(c.vnode2Position(current_v)) Be sure to change nodename to match the headline of the @auto node you created. This should combine steps 2, 3, and 4 into a single click, with no navigation, and drop you down back on the node you were editing prior to clicking the button. Beware: this has the side-effect of reloading *all* @auto nodes in the current outline. Shouldn't be a huge
