Re: [R] Latex editor recommendations
For LaTeX I use the winedt editor: http://www.winedt.com which is extremely powerful and there exists an add-on for the use with R (but I prefer using Tinn-R for R). Winedt is shareware, you have a trial period of 30 days. It has an affordable price and discount for academics if I remember correctly. A very good freeware is TeXnicCenter: http://www.texniccenter.org/ There are many other editors being capable of LaTeX editing like Jedit (which has a LaTeX plugin), xemacs plus auctex and so on but the two mentioned are the LaTeX specialists and in my opinion easier to use. (PS if you look for a nice reference-library for the use with LaTeX Jabref is very good http://jabref.sourceforge.net/ free and works excellent together with winedt (inserts citation into winedt by mouse-click), has a connection to citeseer and medline for receiving citations, can import endnote libraries and so on and so forth) Tom Backer Johnsen schrieb: This question is not oriented towards R, but is posted here because I have the impression that there are at least some Latex users among the contributors.

Re: [R] Latex editor recommendations
Dear Tom, I use the free, smal and charming TexShell/win by Struve and Nagel. The TexShell automaticly uses the default directory structure from MiKTex/win: http://www.projectory.de/texshell/authors.html Quoted from Graham Williams: A free TeXShell for MS-Windows 95 and NT. Features include: All files kept in own directory (no extra DLLs that mess up your system directory); Syntax highlighting for TeX commands; External programs freely definable; Support for dviwins line specials; Predefined templates and dialogs that assist you in editing text or create new documents; User defined templates that can even embrace an existing text; Dialog for inserting images (works with dviwin only); Images can be opened directly from the texshell; It is small.

In a similar vein there's TeXmacs, which is somewhat WYSIWYG. (My apologies if it's already been mentioned).

Re: [R] Latex editor recommendations
There is also a rather old version running natively under Windows 1.0.5 something. But I think TeXmacs is somewhat hard to use and would always recommend LyX unless someone likes to embed calculations in a LaTeX like (which is I admit a really nice feature of TeXmacs. especially with maxima ) I even recommend LyX for Windows since you don't need the cygwin stuff - it runs nicely and native under Windows. So especially if someone is a newbie the installation and use of LyX is really much easier especially compared to any cygwin approach if one does not like the direct programming of LaTeX code in a nice editor environment like that of WinEdt or TeXnicCenter or whatever Niels Vestergaard Jensen schrieb: In a similar vein there's TeXmacs, which is somewhat WYSIWYG.
