• TexLive installer error on installation. I get a: "Use of uninitialized value $avl in patter match..." when I change anything in the GUI version of TeXLive installer

  I'm not sure if I should post here, but here was one of the forums pointed by tug.org. Source: over 1 year ago

• texlive 2018 in the year of 2021?

  The reason which made me curious in the first place was that I could not compile a document successfully which, however, was possible on my Windows machine where I have installed texlive using the online installer of tug.org. After a painful and long and painful investigation I finally installed texlive using the installer from tug.org and et-voila: it worked. Source: about 2 years ago

• LaTeX: Where else can I find or use LaTeX?

  You can find many resources here, like documentation, help, community, you need to explore it by yourself here. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• Coming soon: Publishing Beautiful Books with Markdown

  For a conversion to an e-book, it is possible to take a trip through (La)TeX and TeX4ht, or use Pandoc, which is pretty good at converting from Markdown to HTML (better than between, say, HTML and LaTeX). We will cover all these aspects and more in our book, which itself will be written and typeset using the Markdown package. Source: over 2 years ago

• How to convert LaTex to e-reader friendly file like epub or mobi?

  A possibility is http://tug.org/tex4ht/. It is more advanced, and harder, than Pandoc. Source: over 2 years ago

• Is there an alternative to learning Latex for publishing research papers?

  You can use LyX. LyX self-describes as a What You See is What You Mean editor, basically a fully graphical editor for writing LaTeX. Source: 12 months ago

• Math and Science People: How do you write equations / proofs?

  Directly typing LaTeX gets unwieldy for longer and more complicated expressions, so I write those in LyX first and then copy-and-paste the LaTeX code into Obsidian. Source: about 1 year ago

• VSCode vs Texifier (formerly texpad)

  I like LyX. It's not for everyone, but damn it can be effective. Source: over 1 year ago

• Best offline editor/compiler

  An upopular opinion perhaps, but I'm a huge fan of the WYSIWYM editor LyX. Source: over 1 year ago

• Adding custom words to the dictionary LINUX

  I don't think LyX devs will notice your point here, alas. You could consider writing an email to the devs email list found on lyx.org. Source: over 1 year ago
