Put a Windows-specific example in the docs #27

Closed szhorvat closed 5 years ago

szhorvat commented 5 years ago

Users are asking to have a Windows-specific example of how to set up MaTeX:

Can you make my config style in your future documentation? @szhorvat

ConfigureMaTeX[ "pdfLaTeX" -> "D:\\Program Files\\MiKTeX 2.9\\miktex\\bin\\x64\\pdflatex.exe", "Ghostscript" -> "D:\\Program Files\\gs\\gs9.21\\bin\\gswin64c.exe"]

After careful consideration, this won't be added. There is no typical location, and it is unclear if a Windows-specific example will be more helpful or more confusing. MiKTeX usually installs in the user's home directory, so that path is username dependent (not Program Files). Also, auto-detection typically succeeds on Windows.
