• My uses for vimwiki have dried up... and it makes me a little sad

  I use vimwiki almost daily, but it's not professional use, just daily notes and organizing my life. I started using zim but I found I really missed writing/editing with vim. Then I found vimwiki. There are things I'm not super happy about with it. I saw that /u/lervag (love his vimtex plugin) released a wiki plugin and I was/am interested in it, but I have so much in my wiki right now that I don't want to deal... Source: 11 months ago

• Note Taking Applications, Beyond the Doc

  Definitely get vimtex and set it up so you can view the compiled document in one window, and your notes in the other. Get used to vim a bit with some vim tutorial (there are a bunch out there), and have latex shortcuts you use in all your documents. Source: 11 months ago

• I like Tabasco.

  I do think VSCode is a great tool and I recommend it frequently to people, but I still want to set the record straight here. Yes, vim is obviously limited in the sense that as a CLI app it doesn't draw it's own PDF or HTML windows, that's fair.

• [VimTeX] vim on mac lags when trying to use includegraphics[]{} for attaching image to a .tex file

  I am new to Vim and LaTeX, but I'm trying to learn both at the same time so I started using VimTeX to edit .tex files on MacVim. I got almost everything working now (vimtex itself, zathura, autocomplete, etc.), but one thing. And that is Vim won't respond for a while whenever I try to include an image using \includegraphics[]{} from \usepackage{graphicx}. By typing so, MacVim will request permission to access...

• [HELP] Configuring Vim-tex in NvChad config

  Hi, I've been trying to configure vim-tex working on the NvChad configs. I got the :VimtexCompile working and giving me output pdf. But the usual ll is giving me these errors.

• Just started learning LaTeX. I have a few questions

  Emacs is a good software for LaTeX along with its plugin AUCTeX but you don't need to switch to Emacs since you already are a Vim user. I would recommend to install VimTex (make sure it is NOT VimLatex) using any package manager, e.g. VimPlug. Source: over 1 year ago

• best distro for LaTeX workflow ?

  I would also strongly recommend vimtex, if you aren't using it already. Besides integrating with your compilation method of choice, it provides a lot of features and quality of life improvements for working with LaTeX, and it is actively maintained by the awesome u/lervag.

• *Laughs in autocmd*

  Https://github.com/lervag/vimtex and a Pdf viewer that supports "forward search", like Zathura. Arrange Vim and Zathura side-by-side. Read vimtex instructions on how to sync them, so as you move in vim, zathura will scroll with it. You'll have to research how to set this up. Source: almost 2 years ago
