Hey there!
What editor do you use to write ##LaTeX##?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I use LyX and TeXnicCenter.
LyX is a word-processorish WYSIWYM editor while Texniccenter is a WYSIWYG IDE.
(Both work with MikTeX and are open-source)

Texmaker is what I use.
 
Vim is great (and free)
 
I have also started using LyX after Enigman suggested it.Thanks Enigman!

I downloaded LyX and tried to install it but windows smart screen displayed a warning message. Is this software safe? :)
 
Did you download it from their original website?
I can confirm you that it's safe!
 
I wonder why you just don't read the "Best Latex editor?" thread pinned at the top of the forum first before posting?
