I don't think IDL can write.pdf directly, or at least, I've not tried.) Andy On Nov 10, 8:04 pm, Bruno Lopes wrote: TeXShop now generates both the PDF and DVI file when selected LaTeX typeset. Bruno, I'll check which compiler option I was using with TeXShop, as you say it works for you when LaTeX is selected! (About my.eps files: I'm writing them from IDL, not by hand. Thanks Bruno and Peter for the ideas: it's a public holiday here today but I'll try some of these when back at work tomorrow. It took all of 30 minutes and the experience is so much better than any other Latex editor like texworks, texstudio or texmaker. For information, I set up sublimetext for my girlfriend as she was writing her dissertation. The build process itself is just a shortcut and the whole experience is quite seamless. This is a god-send when you have a large bibliography and cant be bothered to track all your references as you write a report (or thesis). One option that I loved (before switching to org-mode) was the auto-complete for references. You can then even add plugins for making the whole experience seamless. However, if you want a bit more GUI then I suggest SublimeText. Otherwise, emacs itself is a pretty great text editor. If you are comfortable with learning a bit about learning a different system you could look at org-mode for writing latex and then exporting. I think you can edit text colours and backgrounds enough to make a 'night mode' manually. There might not be any night mode, but I have not looked for this.

But recently discovered Texmaker which makes it so much easier to type common functions (auto completion) and double compile before exporting. I was using TexShop for a while due to its simplicity. If you compile from within TeXShop, the output and console will each be in a separate window.

The rest is essentially a text editor with LaTeX highlighting and some useful keyboard shortcuts (e.g.: cmd+t to typeset, shift+cmd+b to run bibtex, etc.). The only 'clutter' is a banner at the top (about the same height as Safari's navigation bar) with about 3 buttons and a few drop down menus. I believe it is distributed with TexLive.

I know these requirements are kind of strict, but any help would be appreciated. I know that I would get something like this with some basic text editor like vim, but I would like it to be purpose build latex editor. Overleaf doesn't work for me as I need it offline and it should have night mode.

I would also like if it would compile the equations and other formatting stuff on spot, like the rich text editor in overleaf does, as I am really looking for distraction free environment and latex code is rather ugly.
