Re: [NTG-context] Text editors

HI! I’ve been using emacs and played around with configuration and finally found a good and very useful setup using LMTX installation. Also I’ve customized with help from YAsnippet my own snippets så it goes very fast. Below I have a setup on my macos that uses - ConTeXt LMTX - emacs-lisp setting in ~/.emacs.d/init.el - customized setting for preview with Skim pdf reader - YASnippet snippets on my dropbox cloudstoring so I can use it on several computers and has a macro syntax easy to learn. - Bind-keys for fast build and preview on two pane "side by side editor and previewer" in "TeXshop style”. C-å Build document and C-c C-v for fast preview in Skim Something to start playing with below to put in your init.el file ;; This is for getting preferred position and size of the emacs editor frame (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(top . 25)) (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(left . 1)) (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(height . 56)) (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(width . 120)) ;; For solving path issues install: do M-x package-install RET exec-path-from-shel RETl (when (memq window-system '(mac ns x)) (exec-path-from-shell-initialize)) ;; For configuring context (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.tex\\'" . context-mode)) (eval-after-load 'tex '(add-to-list 'TeX-command-list '("LuaMetaTeX" "mtxrun --autogenerate --script context %t" TeX-run-command nil (context-mode) :help "Run LuaMetaTeX"))) (defun myctx () "Saves the current buffer and runs ConTeXt, all with no prompts or further interaction."

Dear ConTeXt users,

I'm wondering what kind of typesetting system / syntax highlighting / completion you're using.

I've been using myself the simple_Context package for SublimeText which I scavenged a while ago before it was made unavailable (I wanted to attach but it's too big for the list). But it's sort of a dead-end.

Open to anything from vim/neovim to emacs or more exotic. Maybe it would be nice to show the config. (And yes I've seen the Wiki page https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Text_Editors but I've the feeling some content is outdated.)

Thanks in advance, Alex ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki!
