You even can use LaTeX Plug-in of Gedit but it only recognises LaTeX commands so if you write in ConTeXt or plain TeX, it will think that you have got a master document.
But without the plug-in, you can do anything. I agree with you. Gedit is the best editor. I wished that TeXworks also would include some of Gedit's features. -----Original Message----- From: Jan-Erik Hägglöf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: ntg-context@ntg.nl Sent: Tue, 2 Dec 2008 9:41 pm Subject: [NTG-context] Gedit in Ubuntu as a ConteXt editor HI ConTeXt friends! I've been using Gedit on my ubuntu system for quite some time and is very much happy with it. Here are some advantages: * UTF-8 encoding by default (which is in mind for LuaTeX). * highly configurable code snippets. reading xml-files. * Defining your own typesetting commands and associate it with some keycombination. Drawbacks * Syntax highlighting for LaTeX but works for context-specific also * I'm not sure if it is portable to windows * Some learning curve to learn how to create special ConTeXt plugin like this http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/LaTeXPlugin I've recently tested texworks but it seems missing the snippets capabilities. Is it someone out there who has experience in Gedit?
