You can make your own macros for strings that you commonly type, you can change the font and size of the code, and the side and bottom toolbars can be easily collapsed (and then brought back) if you don’t feel like looking at them. Last but not least, it is highly customizable.Helpful menus for things like Asymptote, PStricks, TikZ, and all the really weird symbols that you always forget the commands for, like $\wp$ ( \wp).

However, I haven’t yet gotten past the Emacs learning curve, and I don’t need the full power of Eclipse.įinally, I tried out TeXStudio. (Perhaps one just needs to get used to it.) Other highly-rated editors on the comparison chart were AUCTEX, a plugin for Emacs, and TeXlipse, a plugin for Eclipse. But I find it to be slower to type in, since there are odd cursor placings after the automatic rendering. One was LyX, which has a nice GUI that automatically renders your math mode code inline. It turns out it isn’t compatible with the new version of Gedit, and you can’t go back to the old version of Gedit sicne it doesn’t run on the new version of Ubuntu (12.04). It looked nice, but after about 10 minutes it mysteriously stopped working.

A long-time Gedit user myself, I first tried the LaTeX Gedit plugin. I then went through and tried out a few of the more “green” editors on that chart. They have a nice comparison chart of TeX editors here: My first conclusion was that Wikipedia is awesome. Since I will be giving the introductory talk, I was looking around at LaTeX front-ends today to see which ones to recommend.

It will be this Wednesday from 2:30-4PM in room 891 Evans Hall.) (The seminar is looking to be quite exciting if you’re in the area – we will have a variety of speakers give 10-minute talks on their favorite LaTeX tool or package. I discovered it while preparing for the “LaTeX Tricks” seminar this week, which I am organizing as part of the UC Berkeley Toolbox Seminar. But in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the start of the semester, I’ve discovered a gemstone within the mathematical software world that was too good not to share: TeXStudio. First post in several weeks term has hit.
