Hullo, I've just learnt enough LaTeX to start writing when Mojca convinced me to try out ConTeXt. So far, I think I like it, but have a few beginner's problems with it. The first one being, which editor to use? So far I've been using Kile for LaTeX and KBib for BibTeX, but Kile doesn't support (yet) ConTeXt syntax, which is a bit different from the LaTeX one. Could anyone suggest a good ConTeXt-aware editor for Linux? Ideally, I would like to see Kile (and Kate) support ConTeXt, but untill I manage to bug their devs into it, I would still need an editor. regards, Matija Šuklje p.s. this is my first post here, I hope I'm not going against any localy established netiquette p.p.s.

Did you have a look at this: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Text_editor It's a bit outdated, but should give you a start. AFAIK Scite is Hans' favourite, so maybe its ConTeXt mode is the best.

I've already looked at it, and it *does* look outdated. Plus it's very hard to search for ConTeXt editors on the net because of the name and also because there is a text editor called ConTEXT.

Uuuu, I've been to Konstanz and St.Gallen half a year ago. Nice. :] cheers, Matija -- gsm: +386 41 849 552 e-mail: matija.suklje@rutka.net www: http://matija.suklje.name aim: hookofsilver icq: 110183360 jabber/g-talk: matija.suklje@gabbler.org msn: matija.suklje@rutka.net yahoo: matija_suklje

I like Gvim. In the .gvimrc file I have assigned the f2 key to readjusting the source text ragged right for readability, f3 to running pdfttex on a file named book.tex, f4 to running texexec on a file named book.tex and f5 to displaying book.pdf via kpdf. Syntax highlighting is turned on of course. Each book gets its own directory and the main file is always named book.tex. I can be working on a samll piece of the book but f3 or f4 will always give me a recompile of the whole book. Kpdf automatically updates witout losing its place. Acrobat Reader won't do that. In other words I have WYSIWYG more or less when I need it. I find this to be an efficient setup. -- John Culleton Want to know what I really think? http://apps.wexfordpress.net/blog/ And my must-read (free) short list: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf
Hi,
If you're using Kate then I guess u're on Linux, in which case you should
try the Scite distro that comes with the larger ConTeXt distributions.
Scite is also available on Windows.
But on Windows I use Notepad++ (NPP), which I have configured for ConTeXt,
and which is soooo much more sophisticated than Scite. I posted a note to
this list with details a few months back; see the archives.
BTW, I am updating the NPP package soon, and will post to the list when
it's ready.
As for etiquette, we're mostly a relaxed, mutually helpful, easy going
bunch so relax ;-)
Best wishes
Idris

Me, too. Never needed anything else than emacs + auctex + texshow. A pity nobody tries to improve anything regarding ConTeXt in Emacs (for instance you cannot lookup a command in texshow and have it included in your text with one key combination) but still I think it's quite useful.

Also think auctex is nice. What is texshow? What does it do, and where can I find it?
Thanks, Maurício
