Exponent in texshop1/8/2024 To see what happens, click on the WinEdt window, and add a \ in line 11 of note1.tex, so that personally reads \personally. A.1.4 Making a mistake WinEdt tells you if there is a mistake in your source file. You should get an arrangement similar to the bottom half of Figure A.1. The new file is displayed by the application Yap, which was automatically installed for you with MiKTeX. MiKTeX typesets note1.tex and produces another file, note1.dvi. A blue arrow in the left margin points at the line where the cursor is. If you are not sure what an icon represents, let the cursor hover over it, and a brief description appears. The seventh from the right in the first row, a darkened lion s head, is the TeXify button, use it to typeset your L A TEX file. All windows of WinEdt have such an x, this is the close window button. Observe: In the right-hand corner, under the X button, the close application button, there is a small black x. Start WinEdt by double clicking the WinEdt icon and open the file note1.tex in work, see the top half of Figure A.1. A.1.3 The editing cycle In Section 1.2 you created the work folder for your work files. Once you become familiar with the basic operations, you can make WinEdt behave the way you like. WinEdt s claim to fame is its incredible customizability. This gives all TEX files a lion icon and automatically associates them with WinEdt so that double clicking a TEX file automatically opens it in WinEdt. under Current User, which is down the right side of the window, and then click OK. Click on the File Associations tab and click on Modify file type associations. Hopefully, this will also assist you with later versions.ģ A.1 L A TEX on a PC 491 starts automatically.

A.1.1 Installing MiKTeX If you made a donation to MiKTeX or if you have the TEX Live 2007 (or later) from the TEX Users Group, then you have a CD or DVD with the MiKTeX installer. So it seems appropriate that we start there. I will assume that you become sufficiently familiar with your L A TEX distribution to be able to perform the editing cycle with the sample documents.Ģ 490 Appendix A Installation A.1 L A TEX on a PC On a PC, most mathematicians use MiKTeX and the editor WinEdt. First read Chapter 1, so that in this Appendix you recognize the terminology we introduce there. Nevertheless, TEX Live 2007 (or later) from the TEX Users Group supplies the compiled (binaries) of L A TEX for a number of UNIX variants. This is obviously beyond the scope of this book. A typical UNIX user downloads the code and compiles the system. The attraction of UNIX to its users is the incredibly large number of options, from the UNIX dialect, to the shell, the editor, and so on. No installation is given for UNIX computers. It contains both the TEX implementations we discuss. The installation is much easier if you obtain TEX Live 2007 (or later) from the TEX Users Group, TUG (see Section E.2). 1 APPENDIX A Installation In case you do not already have a L A TEX installation, in Sections A.1 and A.2, we describe how to install L A TEX on your computer, a PC or a Mac.
