TeXstudio

TeXstudio is an integrated environment for writing LaTeX documents. Our goal is to make writing LaTeX as easy and comfortable as possible. Therefore TeXstudio has numerous features like syntax-highlighting, integrated viewer, reference checking and various assistants.

Easy Setup:

• Installers or packages available for Windows, Linux and (experimental) OS X
• Portable USB version available
• Automatic detection of MikTeX, TeX Live, Ghostscript, and Standardlatex
• SVN support

Note: The OS X version is experimental. Since none of the currently active developers are using OS X, we cannot thoroughly test it. We do our best to also support OS X, but be prepared that there may be some issues.

• link overlays for urls
• close editor tab by pressing middle mouse button
• more standard shortcuts (in particular for OS X)
• support optional filename argument in txs:///view-pdf-internal
• add "expand/collapse all documents" to context menu of structure
• add tabulary support
• open correct log file if output filenames are changed due to "%& -job-name=targetfile" (note: changed pdf filename not yet supported)
• user-defined icons are now portable: if possible icon paths are stored relative to settings dir or application dir
• windowed pdf viewer now supports --no-focus argument
• improved detection of label name for "Insert ref to Next Label"
• improved context detection for preview (multi-line math, cursor inside multi-char delimiter)
• improved search for texdoc location
• improved log parsing including support for LaTeX3 warnings and errors
• resize with soft line warp: keep vertical cursor position constant
• support .tikz files (treated like .tex files)
• new options: Advanced Editor -> Structure Panel ("Show elements in comments", "Mark structure elements beyond end{document}" and "Mark structure elements in appendix")
• new option: mouse wheel zoom also controls the log editor (patch by Paulo Silva)
• new option: encoding of bib files
• new options: some GUI elements are now scalable (for better hi-res display support)
