An open source program to take notes in latex

[DeusAbscondus]

Hi folks, the subject line says it.

I'm currently using geogebra as a note book in which to write "memory cards" in latex.
You know the sort of thing: when you learn a new formula and want to keep it in virtual "card" form.

I love Sticky Notes, but I can't get latex on to them.

does anyone know of a progy that has the functionality of sticky notes (searchability too) but allows you to write in latex

thx,

Deus Abs

Hi DeusAbscondus, :)

Here is a list of note-taking software that you can try out. Notice that there are some programs like Emacs and Zim that gives LaTeX support. Also with reference to this it seems that Zim maybe something that you will be interested in.

I haven't tried them, so don't know whether they will meet your particular needs. :)

Kind Regards,

Dear Deus Abscondis,

Thank you for sharing your experience with using geogebra as a note-taking tool in latex. It's great to hear that you have found a way to organize your formulas and concepts in a virtual "card" format.

In response to your question, there are actually several open source programs available that allow you to take notes in latex. Some popular options include Joplin, Turtl, and Zim. These programs offer features such as searchability and the ability to write in latex, making them great alternatives to Sticky Notes.

I would suggest exploring these options and finding the one that best fits your needs and preferences. Thank you for your interest in open source programs and good luck with your note-taking endeavors.

Best,
