This is a duplicate of of issue https://github.com/James-Yu/LaTeX-Workshop/issues/2139 (closed as not located on the right repo).

I am not really sure where to put this information so I wanted to draw your attention on this before doing anything.

Do you think the wiki deserves a build tools section (if not already existing) and in particular, an arara section ?

jlelong commented 4 years ago

For sure, it is good to put this information in the wiki. Maybe under the Compiling section?

BambOoxX commented 4 years ago

@jlelong That could be the appropriate place indeed ... What is the way the proceed, I pull the repo then make a PR or do you prefer to write it yourself ?

jlelong commented 4 years ago

PRs are always welcome 👍

A kind of. We prefer to close feature requests we are not planning to address because we consider them as out of the scope. It makes handling real issues easier. Concerning James-Yu/LaTeX-Workshop#2173, the point is that vscode's Explorer is not intended to be used as a general purpose file explorer and hence it does not make sense for us to implement some "Open With" option for PDF. Morevoer, PDF opened from the Explorer and or using latex-workshop.view are handled differently inside the extension, see here

I have updated my last post, in which the last sentence was truncated.

Hmm, if you do not count on opening pdf from the explorer with an external viewer, is there a way to disable the internal viewer ? Because whenever I click on a pdf a tab is opened and it is quite annoying sometimes with big documents :).

(I will remove all these comments once we finish here).
