As some of you know I've been working off and on on a new LaTeX bundle. It started as an extension bundle “LaTeXtra” but lately I've been focusing on merging that code into a fork of the LaTeX bundle (http://github.com/alexross/latex.tmbundle).
Hi Alex,
thanks for this bundle: I use LaTeX2 specially ⌘R and cycle
I use also the bundle of Guido. II like LATEX subscript and superscript and also LATEX SYMBOL but I have the problem with ^ and the french keyboard
I use also my bundle" latex author", for example to get a highlight syntax of Tex Terms ( to see the primitives of TeX ) an I have also my laTeX theme
One of my biggest gripes with the current bundle is that there are MANY ways to do things.
This is not the only problem, I think another problem : different languages are mixed for example to create ⌘R, python ruby why not only one language. It's difficult to add or remove something
For instance there are 3-4 ways to insert a new environment, each with different key combinations that I cannot remember. There is a lot of room for simplification.
Simplification will require the removal of some commands, but I'm sure there is at least one person using each command. What I'd like is to get an idea of how people generally use the bundle. So, if you use the LaTeX bundle, please reply!
- What typesetting engine do you typically use? (ie. pdflatex,
xelatex, pdflualatex, etc …)
pdflatex but I need to some specific script to run asymptote or giac with latex
- PDF Viewer? (Skim.app, Preview.app, …)
Skim, preview and sometimes Adobe Reader
- Do you use any of the completion commands? Which ones? What sort
of LaTeX macros do you commonly complete?
Yes I use ESC and ALT ESC but there is always a bug in the completion with ALT ESC ALT ESC don't work if there is in the preamble something like \input{essai}
Example \documentclass{article}
\begin{document} \input{essai} \in .... alt esc nothing ! \end{document}
After \in and ALT ESC, a window gives
I modified the file LateXCommandCompletions.rb and I added
def recursiveFileSearch(initialList) extraPathList = [] fileExt="tex"
Now ALT ESC works correctly but I would like to know if my change is correct !
- Do you use any of the snippets?
yes a lot of snippets : environment, left..right Enumerate etc ...
- What commands (besides ⌘R) do you use the most often?
⌘R of your Bundle Wrap !!!! Format Run MakeIndex Tables Help Documentation for package
- Anything that you'd miss terribly if it was removed?
I don't use Tidy but I need the other commands of the LaTeX bundle but I need three bundles of LateX to work correctly.
Best Regards
Alain Matthes
