Well, yes. I'd say that's what emacs is. A framework for, mostly, text based applications in lisp. The advantage is its "unified interface". Everything is configured in the same language, uses mostly the same keybinds,

Agree. This could be easily done in org. I feel that if org was more popular, a lot of these solutions would disappear, or would be a small project that just reads some org properties. I guess it would be key to have better support for easi

I've been using it a bit and it works very well, altough it's hard to get used to its way to define ”environments”. About cetz, I miss mainly circuits. There's a plugin, but's years behind circuitikz or its alternatives.

It seems good, and there's an emacs version, altough simpler than auctex. Not having the preview in the code buffer, isn't a dealbreaker, especially when typst is so fast, but it's still a useful feature. The part of the pack

Typist is a bit older than that, it was born in 2018. Regardless, I don't expect it to have feature parity with latex, but it still lacks several important and simple packages. Besides, I was just making a point on why people in a simi

ATM, I have 220 in my pc, another 200 in my laptop, and 100+ in my phone. But a few weeks ago, I deleted arch from my pc, and I had firefox with ~1500 and floorp with more or less the same, altough distributed in several workspaces. I spent

Yeah, that's why I thought of contributing to cetz, the language is definitively way better. Although I think that for basic usage, I like the tikz way a bit better. The main problem I'd say is circuitikz. It's a really big a

It looks nice, but it doesn't have as many features, altough I understand that, as typst is easier to write, a lot of things aren't needed. I'll try it out when I have time

It's pretty easy, actually. First, install the plugin, I use this with elpaca: ``` (use-package latex :ensure nil :hook (LaTeX-mode . TeX-fold-mode) ;; I don't use a lot the fold, but it's useful (

Yeah, I've also seen that in the latex forums, Emacs is strangely popular. I don't think that there's someone that doesn't have at least one complaint about latex. But probably there are a lot of people that try to under

I don't know which of the several typists plugins are you talking about, but they all seem decent, but years from achieving the features auctex has. Just to say, the most important features: Well, the feature you mentioned of clicking

I've been looking into it. It's `blazingly fast` (aside from the rust joke, it really is way faster than latex), the syntax is more "modern", consistent, etc. The main problem is the popularity. It just does not have eno
