Re: [science-iwg] Interested in helping support Texclipse?

Hi all,

Erwin: I’m pretty sure that would be possible. If I remember correctly they’re extending the Eclipse build system to convert LaTeX to PDF.

The last sentence in these paragraphs is what worries me:

"TeXlipse version 1.0 was brought to you by the Texlapse-team as a software project on the SoberIT lab of the Helsinki University of Technology. The Texlapse-team includes (in alphabetical order): Taavi Hupponen, Kimmo Karlsson, Jani Laitinen, Oskar Ojala, Antti Pirinen, Esa Seuranen and Laura Takkinen.

TeXlipse version 1.5.0 was developed from 1.0 as an open source project on SourceForge. The team that developed it consisted of Oskar Ojala, Kimmo Karlsson, Boris von Loesch, Tor Arne Vestbø and Matthias Merll. Additionally, several contributions were received from users of TeXlipse.”

Anyhow, if we can get this into Eclipse it would be great. Otherwise we could just fork it to GitHub and take it from there. In any case I’m thinking to donate/integrate the LaTeX equation writer I’ve been working on[1]. I’ve pushed through CQ a recent version of MathJaX so that part should not be a problem.

Best regards,
Torkild
