Just to give you a heads up in case there's something you wish to
commit or don't want included with the beta (and actually believe in my
release schedule).
Beta 4 is mostly minor fixes (a dozen of these) but also a few new
niceties like the much enhanced abbreviation matcher for the file
chooser, completion in find panel text fields, the append to lines in
selection allowing editing, and most interesting for the majority of
this list (AFAIK) is the ability to set the output for commands to
HTML.
I have LaTeX show its normal textual output in a nice dark grey with
compile errors in black, these are of course anchors which move the
caret to the erroneous line. If there are no errors, it will do a
meta-refresh and show the generated PDF in this same output window
(using the PDF Browser Plugin, as suggested by Eric Hsu) which is
pretty neat if I may say so! ;)
I think this stuff has tons of potential -- I should extend the txmt
URI scheme to also allow insertion of text/snippets, that way people
can make their beloved palettes using HTML/CSS/JavaScript :)
Currently my only gripe about this new stuff is that it doesn't allow
for keyboard navigation. But maybe I can add that, after all, Safari
does allow to tab between links.
Also, specific for this LaTeX/PDF stuff, there's no way to keep the
current page when recompiling a document -- but maybe the author of
this plugin would be willing to work something out with me.
