To illustrate the debugging procedure, let's create a few mistakes in the file. Insert the following ``mistakes'' in the file:
This is a $\mistake$. And this is $\another$
Now press \ll
again. This time you will notice that
after compilation finishes, the cursor automatically lands on
$\mistake$
. In addition, 2 new windows will appear
as shown here:
The middle window is an Error List window
showing you the errors which the latex compiler found. The bottom
window is a Log Preview window, which shows you
the context of the error made by displaying the relevant portion of
the .log
file created during the latex
compilation procedure. Jump to the Error List
window and try scrolling around in it using either the j,
k
keys or the arrow keys. You will notice that the
Log Preview window scrolls automatically to
retain the context of the error you are currently located on. If you
press <enter>
on any line, you will see the
cursor jump to the location of the error. Latex-Suite tries to guess
the column location as best as it can so you can continue typing
straight away.
