LaTeX Latex Extension (Beta): Firefox Only

AI Thread Summary

Users report occasional crashes and are encouraged to provide feedback on features and user interface improvements. The developer aims to maintain a minimalist design and plans to submit the extension to Mozilla's add-ons repository soon. There is also a mention of a related wiki that the developer started but has not updated due to academic commitments, inviting contributions from others.

LaTeX extension (beta)

http://www.mathphyswiki.com/index.php?title=Latex_extension

Firefox only, sorry. It's supposed to help with doing latex.

Some issues left. It crashes sometimes. I'm taking suggestions on anything, from adding a function to a UI overhaul. I haven't even settled on a name yet. Hoping to keep that minimalist look. If everything goes well, I'll probably submit it to addons.mozilla at the end of the week.

As for the wiki, I started it a while ago, but haven't had time to work on it due to finals. Hoping to get something in over break. Edit it if you wish :)

That is a good idea, I will try it out, although I ussually don't have too much trouble with LaTeX. Maybe I'll have a few suggestions for you.

It gives me a reason to download firefox again, and I have been looking for one. :P
 
How do you start using it? I have never dl'd a firefox extension. :(

It is installed and is under "add-ons." I just don't know how to activate it.
 
Yeah I need to make that less hidden. Click the little orb on the statusbar. Down at the bottom of the window.

(for anyone who doesn't know how to install it, just drag it to a firefox window)
