SHORTCUT: Alt+F1 & Alt+2

BRIEF:

Karl Berry's much improved/updated NASA html Help information in a paste-able TeXworks dialogue

INSTALL:

(The zip completely replaces any version released here previously. 
If you installed one, delete its whole directory first.)

Unzip to any directory under you TeXworks script directory - Use Menu Scripting/Scripting TeXworks/ Show Script Folder to open the Scirpts' main folder

Allow decompression to `use folder names'.  

Change the Alt key combination if you want/need to avoid conflicts with any existing scripts.

Then use Tw Menu item, Scripts/Scripting TeXworks/Reload Scripts List

USAGE:

(N.B. If you "paste" from the help dialogue, any text already selected in the editor, 
will be replaced.)

First, if you want to - in the Tw Editor, select some text, a full command, 
or partial text that you want to search for help on. 
(Double clicking a LaTeX command name will select it for you.) 

While in your editing document Hold down the Alt Key and before releasing it, 
tap the F1 and then the 2 keys, than release the Alt key.

Further help information is available in the dialogue that opens.

Reasonably intuitive.

Type partial LaTeX commands or concepts into the text box at the left.

IN the main help document window highlight any text you want inserted into your TeXworks 
editing document, and either use the button 

"Paste Selection into Tw" and find more selectable text and paste in teh same way 
(use Cancel when finished), or select some text and OK (will paste and close dialogue).
