Re: [R] Latex editor recommendations

2006-10-18 Thread Stefan Grosse
For LaTeX I use the winedt editor: http://www.winedt.com which is
extremely powerful and there exists an add-on for the use with R (but I
prefer using Tinn-R for R). Winedt is shareware, you have a trial period
of 30 days. It has an affordable price and discount for academics if I
remember correctly.

A very good freeware is TeXnicCenter: http://www.texniccenter.org/

There are many other editors being capable of LaTeX editing like Jedit
(which has a LaTeX plugin), xemacs plus auctex and so on but the two
mentioned are the LaTeX specialists and in my opinion easier to use.

(PS if you look for a nice reference-library for the use with LaTeX
Jabref is very good http://jabref.sourceforge.net/ free and works
excellent together with winedt (inserts citation into winedt by
mouse-click), has a connection to citeseer and medline for receiving
citations, can import endnote libraries and so on and so forth)

Emacs is the classical choice. The XEmacs works nicely under XP:

Thanks for the suggestion.  It may be right for a newdie to Latex.

I use LyX ( http://www.lyx.org/ ) and I am happy with it - it's 
advantage is that one does not need to know LaTeX in detail to use it.

I only know it from Linux, but it is also available for Windows

Re: [R] Latex editor recommendations

Dear Tom,

I use the free, smal and charming TexShell/win by Struve and Nagel. The 
TexShell 
automaticly uses the default directory structure from MiKTex/win:
http://www.projectory.de/texshell/authors.html

Quoted from Graham Williams: "A free TeXShell for MS-Windows 95 and NT. 
Features include: All files kept in own directory (no extra DLLs that mess up 
your system directory); Syntax highlighting for TeX commands; External programs 
freely definable; Support for dviwins line specials; Predefined templates and 
dialogs that assist you in editing text or create new documents; User defined 
templates that can even embrace an existing text; Dialog for inserting images 
(works with dviwin only); Images can be opened directly from the texshell; It 
is 
small."

In a similar vein there's TeXmacs, which is somewhat WYSIWYG. (My 
apologies if it's already been mentioned). It's originally a linux 
program, but it's possible to run it under cygwin:

Re: [R] Latex editor recommendations

2006-10-18 Thread Stefan Grosse
There is also a rather old version running natively under Windows 1.0.5
something. But I think TeXmacs is somewhat hard to use and would always
recommend LyX unless someone likes to embed calculations in a LaTeX like
(which is I admit a really nice feature of TeXmacs. especially with
maxima ) I even recommend LyX for Windows since you don't need the
cygwin stuff - it runs nicely and native under Windows.

So especially if someone is a newbie the installation and use of LyX is
really much easier especially compared to any cygwin approach if one
does not like the direct "programming" of LaTeX code in a nice editor
environment like that of WinEdt or TeXnicCenter or whatever

I recommend emacs
http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/emacs

It has modes for TeX and LaTeX and automatically chooses the
right one.

As a side benefit once you have emacs you can then
run R through ESS, the package that provides the modes for handling
statistical languages

In addition you get support for Sweave (mixing R and LaTeX).

Recommended packages for Editing LaTeX / R are:

AucTeX + reftex 
ESS
