Hi, This is just a short story with two screenshots.
I have been using Leo less and less, as I go to live coding and moldable environments and I'm building my own interactive outliner (Grafoscopio) powered by Pharo. But recently I need to tackle a difficult text while preparing a couple of papers. This is a place where Leo shines for me, when you are deconstructing already existing text, written by other or by yourself, no matter if it is prose or code. At some point, the hierarchical layout provided by the (excellent) TeXStudio LaTeX editor, with side previews, where not enough to organize the text further. I need a more granular approach to my ideas. As happened before, I remember using Leo to create emergent order from code and scripts that where organized beyond the class/methods hierarchy provided by code editors, and I did the same with this complex text. Thanks to the @file directive, I was able to use both tools in tandem: With Leo I organized the text in a granular way, finding redundancies, editing and moving outside of the article outline unnecessary ideas and with TeXStudio I used all the bells and whistles about PDF preview, querying bibliography, counting article words (not LaTeX commands) and so on. Such combination, allowed my to tackle the writing process in a way that no tool by itself could allow. Here are the screenshots of the two tools working on the same text: * Leo: https://imgur.com/duHQzHj.png * TeXStudio: https://imgur.com/xvw1dwD.png Grafoscopio is a research prototype that scaped the PhD, but still needs to mature a lot and has much to learn from Leo and its community.
