New (tex-oriented) publishing suite #37

Closed df79 closed 10 years ago

df79 commented 12 years ago

I would like to propose a change in ArcheOS menu-entry. In my opinion we could create a new folder (name "Publishing"?) in which to collect the following softwares:

texmaker (LaTeX frontend)
jabref (application for bibtex bibliography management)
IPE (I confirm that IPE is a very good software. It is the perfect complement of latex suite, providing very good tools for drawing simple figure with complex texts or formulas. See issue 14, https://github.com/archeos/ArcheOS/issues/14)
scribus
...other...? This folder can be a stand-alone folder or a subfolder of Office folder.

Yes ! It could also be convenient to had Lyx in that folder (and in the distro). It's a good start to enter latex world and an easy way to publish reports. I use it for all my works in archaeology.

Thank you for suggestions. Lyx is a very good and famous software. It is a GUI to write latex in simple way. In ArcheOS we already have a GUI (Texmaker) for Latex. But Lyx seems to have a more simple structure than Texmaker and it may be a good tool to start with latex. We will try it and evaluate its inserting in ArcheOS. Thank you very much. Other suggestions are welcome.
