Question

I currently use Kile to edit LaTeX documents. I don't like kile for a couple of reasons so I was thinking of trying to learn how to use texmacs. I have been through a tutorial for emacs which I am now getting to grips with. The documentation for texmacs and auctex are pretty weak in terms of explaining how to install and how to use those things. A quick google search didn't show up any friendly "how-to"s on this topic. Are there any resources you can direct me to?

Was it helpful?

Solution

I'm a bit puzzled by your question. I use Emacs+Auctex on Windows, Linux and OS X machines and have never had any problem installing them. I'd suggest heading to http://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/ and following the instructions. If you have any more specific questions post again.

OTHER TIPS

sorry I can't help you with TeXmacs, I just wanted to note that this program isn't under active development for quite some time now. If you look at the homepage the copyright notice is until year 2003!

If you are looking for a more GUI oriented LaTeX editor I can recommend LyX. Emacs+AucTeX is of course wonderful, but it has a certain learning curve.

However if you plan to learn Emacs or are using it already, than you should definitely go for it!
