Printing and outputing tex file.

You need a LATEX install to print xcas history. To print a geometry construction, you need to insert a graph2tex() (or graph3d2tex() for a 3-d figure in the history at the place where you want to print it. Plots are automatically printed if the commandname begins with plot. To print a sheet, press the ok button in the mtrw mode button bar then enter.

When you do a preview in the File->Print menu, this will generate a file of extension .tex with the same basename as the session basename (by default session.tex). This file can be used standalone, or you can extract parts and put them in another tex file. When you leave xcas, the file session.tex contains a LATEX translation of the whole history.
