No-Google (fan)fic writing, Part 3: LaTeχ

Storytime

Just like I used Zettelkasten for fic parallel to Word for work for a long time, I used LaTeX alongside Zettelkasten for a few years. The reason why I made the switch to LaTeX in the first place was precisely because I’d been forced to use Word at work, and Word is just about the shittiest application you could possibly choose if you have to make text look pretty. As in, print-worthy pretty, not just “this assignment needs to look somewhat good so my professor doesn’t grade me down”.

So I badgered an acquaintance to show me LaTeX, which he did, which is when I started down that road – that I’m still on, although I am fairly certain it leads to hell. There were a number of reasons why I started using LaTeX for writing fanfic as well:

I ditched Dropbox for GIT, which is way better in terms of version control and allows you to directly compare changes between plain text files. With Zettelkasten’s bespoke .zkn3 file format, the direct comparison unfortunately doesn’t work because it’s not plain text, and I became increasingly frustrated with that.

I got into Raspberry Pis, and while it is possible to work with Zettelkasten on the small screens, even that simple interface became a bit much for the screen size.

I fell into the Transformers fandom with its plethora of canon and fanon terms for body parts, time units and even different curse words.

Boiling all of that down, I made the decision to switch to a system that would allow me to write plain text at all times because plain text is great for direct comparisons of files, for working on your stories regardless of which operating system your computer runs on – and because LaTeX has an amazing package called “glossaries” that I’ll talk about later on.

Word/Writer/Google docs versus LaTeX

Hoo boy, where to even start! Because, you see, LaTeX is NOT “What You Get Is What You See”. LaTeX is “What You Get Is What You Want (but that also means that while you’re writing your document, it looks nothing like the finished version will look)”.

Let me be plain and clear from the start: If you’re looking into an easy and convenient replacement for Word/Writer/Google docs, I can almost assure you that LaTeX is not what you’re looking for, at least not plain LaTeX. Learning LaTeX requires you to completely rethink how you approach text, because

where in Word, you’ll have boldface and italics and a mixture of both,

in LaTeX, you must write \textbf{boldface} and \textit{italics} and \textbf{\textit{a mixture of both}} and put \chapter{around every single one of your chapter headings} and never, ever forget to close a curly bracket or you’ll (temporarily) break your document.

It ain’t for the faint of heart or those unwilling to learn how to write plain text with code that is actually instructions to your computer on what you would like pieces of your text to look like in your output file.

And for 99.9% of stories, LaTeX is completely overpowered. Seriously.

But I love LaTeX and use it for writing fanfic, so I’ll include it here.

Cost

On the pro side, LaTeX is free. On Windows, you can either install MiKTeX or TeX Live, on Linux, only the latter.

+1 for being free. Just make sure you have enough bandwidth and time when you install, because it’ll take time. Hours, if your computer is old or you have little bandwidth.

Interface

Here comes the first catch:

You will almost never interact directly with LaTeX, especially if you’re new to it. Becaus LaTeX runs in the background and you need an extra interface to interact with it, unless you’re comfortable using the command line.

Fortunately, there are very good LaTeX editors: TeXstudio and TeXMaker are probably the most popular, and either is good and free. Or you can use any plain text editor, really: Notepad++, KATE, whatever Mac has.

Which I sort of want to give +1 for, because it’s not difficult to find a good LaTeX editor, buuut you actually have to download and install an extra editor to use it.

File formats

Still, there is the +1 I’ll give it for being plain text. You can open a LaTeX document in any editor you like and you’ll be able to read the file contents. The official file extension is .tex, but it’s basically the same as opening a .txt-file.

That is actually great. Genuinely, really great, because regardless of which computer you’re using, every computer, any operating system will come with an editor that can open .tex-files.

Even better, if your documents aren’t too complicated, they can be exported into HTML, which is what I usually do. Write story in LaTeX, export to HTML via make4ht, then copypaste into the AO3 HTML or Rich Text editor.

But the main output format for LaTeX is actually PDF. To use make4ht, you need to use the command line, so it’s actually a bit more complicated than with Zettelkasten or LibreOffice Writer to get your story out of LaTeX and into AO3.

Features

As far as features are concerned, there are an insane number of things you can do with LaTeX, layout-wise. I could spend a whole year writing an entry every day on something LaTeX can do and I still wouldn’t have covered even half of it.

LaTeX requires you to have proper document structures, meaning chapters, sections etc. It lets you outcomment text that you want to keep, but don’t want printed in the final version. It lets you load entire chapters or scenes from other .tex-files if you want to keep them separated like the “notes” in Zettelkasten. There’s a package that allows you to include fancy coloured To-Do notes just to annoy your beta with whiny comments about how you’re struggling with a particular scene. (I do that a lot.)

In other words, it is extensive. So I’m going to just focus on what was my main reason to move to LaTeX to write fanfic: the “glossaries” package. Remember what I said above about all the different terms in Transformers? Canon and fanon terminology is, in fact, so diverse and extensive that people write whole lexica for it.

Hands can be servos. Feet can be pedes or peds. And the time units in different continuities (there’s at least seven) make you want to break down, hit the floor with your fists and scream “why?!?” as your neighbours call 112.

The glossaries package in combination with what are called “conditional switches” in LaTeX allows me to create a sort of “dictionary” including all of those different time units while using the same “keyword” for the same concept.

Let’s pick “year” as an example. The entry for that looks approximately like this:

\ifDreamwave \newglossaryentry{year}{name={ano-cycle},description={probably meanting a year in the Dreamwave continuity}} \fi

\ifEnergon \newglossaryentry{year}{name={cycle}, description={year in the Energon continuity}} \fi

\ifIDWTwo \newglossaryentry{year}{name={kilocycle}, description={year in IDW 2019}} \fi

I could go on, but I think the principle has become clear. All of these have in common that I “call” them by entering \gls{year} in the actual text. What the \if does is switch between the different versions, depending on which I enable by adding, for example, \Energontrue.

Every time \gls{year} appears in the text, LaTeX will now automatically replace it with “cycle”, and I can stop trying to remember which word the particular continuity I’m writing for uses.

Does this blow the whole issue of different terminology entirely out of proportion?

Yes, yes, it does. But if you think that will dissuade me, you can’t have met many fanfiction authors. I do not care in the slightest that it is entirely bonkers to go to all that effort just to make sure I’m using the right terminology for the continuity I’m writing in. You’re missing the point.

Syncing

Unless you’re using Overleaf (I’m going to laugh my arse off if any of you tells me you’re using your university-sponsored Overleaf licence to write fanfiction), syncing your .tex-files across machines requires the use of another service – Dropbox, OneDrive, but actually, GIT is the best, either online via GitHub or GitLab or with a USB. I will get to the differences between those services in due time.

Ease of use for Word/Google doc-users

I said it above already, but if you’re coming straight from Word or Google docs to LaTeX, you’re going to have to invest time into understanding how LaTeX works. You’ll have to get used to writing code in your document and being unable to immediately see what your text looks like in the output, unless you use LyX, which is a LaTeX-editor that was built specifically to make it easier for Word-users to switch to using LaTeX. But even so, you’ll need to learn how to structure documents.

If you’re thinking of using LaTeX for other purposes as well – uni, publishing actual books, anything where it’s useful to be able to layout your documents professionally yourself, absolutely. At least give it a try.

In order to just write fanfic? In franchises that haven’t decided to come up with new time units every time they create a new continuity?

It’s probably not worth it. The only reason I’m using it to write fanfic is because I already knew all of that stuff. I didn’t have to invest time in learning LaTeX in the first place, I just started using LaTeX for writing fanfic as well.

Don’t get me wrong. I love LaTeX. It is just a huge time investment if you can’t also use those skills somewhere else, and if it’s the plain text you’re after, the next part will feature Markdown – which has by and large the same benefits as LaTeX, but takes about half an hour to learn.

Latex On Mac

Download LaTeXiT for Mac to typeset LaTeX equations and export them as PDF by drag & drop. LaTeXiT has had 1 update within the past 6 months. In this tutorial we will go through the installation process of MacTeX and TexStudio which we will be using it for our upcoming tutorials. Hope to see you in. Open source LaTeX editor focused on a streamlined workflow. TeXstudio is an uncomplicated yet powerful Mac application that enables you to create and edit LaTeX documents in a clean, organized and user friendly environment. Finding your way around the application is fairly easy: the main window.

Installing LaTeX on Mac

When installing LaTex, two following options are given to users.

Install MacTeX with builtin editor(TexLive) - (2GB)

Install BasicTeX only (100MB) + your personal LaTeX editor

Option 1 (Full LaTeX installation with LaTeX editor):

Download MacTex.For more details about MaxTex: Click Here.

Since MaxTex installs an LaTex editor (TexMaker) already, installing another LaTeX editor is unnecessary.

Option 2 (BasicTeX + Custom LaTeX editor):

Download BasicTeX.For more details about BasicTex: Click Here.

Pick one of the following LaTeX editors:LaTex Editor's:

MacTeX vs BasicTeX

Latex Download For Windows 10

MacTeX includes additional programs such as an editor and a BibTeX reference manager that help users to work with TeX outside of the command line. BasicTeX does not include these GUI programs. The trade-off that comes with using BasicTeX is that you will have to download and install additional packages and programs as the need arises- and BasicTeX is so basic that the need will arise. So, after installing BasicTeX you will be faced with the tasks of installing additional programs and installing missing packages.

When it comes to writing and editing documents, most Mac-based text editors have progressed steadily over the years, making it much easier to embed tables, images, and even interactive apps right in-between paragraphs.

But as STEM students and technical professionals know, things are far from being that user friendly when you need to include mathematical notation, equations, and formulas.

The good news is there are a few ways that make typing math symbols on Mac more seamless. So here’s a brief guide on how to create math notation without spending hours trying to make math software work.

What Are Math Symbols?

Broadly, math symbols are figures or combinations of figures that are used in math formulas. The most basic symbols are digits (0, 1, 2…) and Latin letters. Then there are characters that are easily accessible on all standard keyboards like % (Shift + 5), '+' (Shift + '=') and '='.

Some more complex but still frequently used math symbols often get substituted with an approximation, such as “x” for multiplication, “/“ for division, or “^” for squaring. This could be fine for day-to-day communication, but wouldn’t work in academia or when trying to type mathematics with elaborate equations.

Proper math writers support two kinds of math notations: Unicode characters (accessible to any computer) and LaTeX math symbols (which have their own syntax). Let’s explore how to output both of them using a math keyboard.

How to type math symbols with Keyboard Viewer

As mentioned above, you probably already know some frequently used keyboard shortcuts for mathematical notation (e.g. the percent sign, the plus sign, the equals sign). However, there are probably quite a few accessible combinations that you’ve never thought were there. The good news is you can visually find what those are by using the Keyboard Viewer.

To learn all available keyboard shortcuts to help you type mathematics:

Launch System Preferences

Open the Keyboard menu

Navigate to Input Sources

Check “Show Input menu in menu bar”

Now click Show Keyboard Viewer from the menu bar for an interactive keyboard to appear on your screen. Try holding down each modifier key (Fn, Control, Option, ⌘) and also their various combinations to see how the character layout on your keyboard will change to reveal hidden math symbols that you can use in the future.

How to type all Unicode math symbols

Since Unicode is a universal standard for encoding any kind of characters across most languages, it has a full library of math symbols accessible directly on your Mac. Because there are more than 100,000 various Unicode characters, it’s not possible to fit them all as keyboard shortcuts — you have to use Character Viewer instead, which works in any text editor, whether native to Mac or online.

To enable a Unicode math typer in any text editor, follow the same process that we’ve covered for the Keyboard Viewer, but instead of Keyboard Viewer, click Show Emoji & Symbols from the menu bar.

When you open Character Viewer, feel free to browse through all the tabs (especially Math Symbols) or use the search box to find the math notation you were looking for. To use any of the math symbols you find, simply make sure your text editor is active and then double click on the character to paste it in. To save yourself some time, feel free to Add to Favorites the math symbols you like the most. Check the notepad++ alternatives for Mac.

How to use online math keyboards

Knowing all available shortcuts for math symbols and having the rest saved as favorites in your Character Viewer should get you 50% of the way there when it comes to writing mathematical notation.

But Unicode characters come short when you need a professional multilevel equation typer. You can, however, find some basic ones online:

Go to wiris.com/mathtype

Use the interactive equation typer to create equations of any complexity. You can even switch into the drawing view and write your equation by hand, which would then be translated into typed math symbols.

Export or copy your equation to Microsoft Word or Google Docs when done

How to convert math notation to LaTeX

When what you need in your math software is maximum flexibility, you need to use LaTeX math symbols. LaTeX is essentially a framework for turning plain text into properly formatted mathematical notation.

For example, here’s a LaTex equation: E &= frac(mc^2)(sqrt(1-frac(v^2)(c^2)))

Looks complicated, right? Even though you can technically type it in any text editor, knowing the proper LaTeX structure isn’t easy. That’s why you need an app that can reliably translate handwritten math symbols and equations into LaTeX syntax.

MathKey is the easiest way to convert your handwriting into LaTeX math symbols. Without any confusing interface, just write out your equations by hand using your trackpad, mouse, or tablet and see them instantly turned into usable LaTeX, MathML, or even a high-quality image. Then use the result in any text editor of your choice (the whole iWork suite from Numbers to Pages supports LaTeX notation). You can even draw out your math symbols with your iPhone or iPad and transfer them to MathKey right away.

How to make advanced calculations on Mac

Once you learn how math typers and equation typers work, you’d likely need to know how to actually calculate these advanced equations in math software and ideally build graphs and other visualizations.

PocketCAS is an intuitive but highly advanced math solver for Mac. Like a TI-89 calculator, this app will easily take you through all the math levels you need, from simple algebra to research-grade calculus.

Calculate integrals, solve linear equations, and run factorizations right on your Mac and without any need to be connected to the internet. Even more, you can visualize datasets and relationships between them in either 2D or 3D views. And if you don’t know how to type any math symbols, PocketCAS features its own math keyboard to help you out.

Latex Download For Mac Download

As you can see, there are more than a few ways to type mathematics, from using keyboard shortcuts with Keyboard Viewer to pasting math symbols with Character Viewer to finding a math keyboard online to handwriting your equations with MathKey to solving maths of any complexity with PocketCAS.

Best of all, both MathKey and PocketCAS apps are available to you absolutely free for seven days through a trial of Setapp, a platform with more than 200 niche Mac apps for any occasion, from making GIFs (Gifox) to archiving files (Archiver). Try them all today at no cost and see how much more useful your Mac can be!

What Is Notepad++?

Notepad++ is basically what would happen if you were to inject Notepad with steroids and forced it to work out. It supports several programming languages and features syntax highlighting, syntax folding, PCRE (Perl Compatible Regular Expression) search/replace, auto-completion, multi-document editing, WYSIWYG printing, zoom in and zoom out, bookmarks, macro recording and playback, and more.

Notepad++ is free and open source, first released in 2003 by Don Ho. It’s written in C++ and based on powerful editing component Scintilla. This free open source library supports many features to make code editing easier in addition to error indicators, line numbering in the margin, as well as line markers such as code breakpoints.

Because of its extensive features, support for 84 languages, and free price, Notepad++ was voted as the most used text editor worldwide with 34.7 percent of 26,086 respondents on Stack Overflow claiming to use it daily. It has also won a number of prestigious awards including the “Best Programming Text Editor for Windows” award from Lifehacker in 2011 and 2014.

Why Is Notepad++ Mac Not Available?

Unfortunately, it’s impossible to download Notepad++ for Mac. You might think that Notepad++ Mac isn’t available because it’s also not possible to download Notepad for Mac, but that’s not the real reason why.

Notepad++ relies extensively on Win32 API, the 32-bit application programming interface for modern versions of Windows. Win32 API consists of many components, including things like file systems, devices, processes, threads, and error handling. It’s also responsible for that instantly recognizable Windows look and feel that many long-term users of the operating system find so appealing. In short, without Win32 API, there’s no Notepad++. At least not without a major rewriting of the application.

If Notepad++ were a commercial project, there’s a chance that it would make a sense to develop and maintain a separate version for macOS (and Linux), but it’s free and open source, so the motivation is limited. Porting Notepad++ to another operating system would also break the compatibility with most plugins, essentially fragmenting the Notepad++ community.

Text editors for writers for mac. The best free and paid text editor programs for Mac whether you're a web developer, programmer, technical writer, or anything in between! Text editors are an entirely different story. Text editors are much more helpful if you're editing code, creating web pages, doing text transformation or other things for which a word processor is just overkill. The Best Free Text Editors for Windows, Linux, and Mac Lori Kaufman April 28, 2012, 12:00pm EDT We all use text editors to take notes, save web addresses, write code, as well as other uses. Whilst you may be content using a pen and paper, many Mac owners need something a little more powerful for writing text on their computer. Fortunately, a wide range of different tools exist, each with their own unique features (and price point). It’s my go-to text editor for all those random everyday tasks in between writing notes and coding on iOS or Mac apps. — Manton Reece, Developer and Founder of Micro.blog Where Atom’s interface can sometimes feel like the embodiment of its tagline (“A hackable text editor for the 21st Century”), BBEdit is more closely aligned in. For writers just looking for a distraction-free writing environment, all the bells and whistles of a feature-packed text editor are distracting, and one of the basic or minimalist text editors.

How to Run Notepad++ On Mac?

Because of extensively Notepad++ relies on Win32 API, there are two possible ways how to run it on macOS: rewrite it so that it doesn’t rely on Win32 API anymore, or provide it the necessary API. We’ve already explained why the former is unlikely to happen anytime soon, but the latter is already possible using virtual machines and emulators.

Install Notepad++ on Mac Using Wine

Wine is a recursive backronym for Wine Is Not an Emulator. What is Wine then? A free and open-source compatibility layer whose goal is to emulate the Windows runtime environment by translating Windows system calls into POSIX-compliant system calls. It also recreates the directory structure of Windows systems and provides alternative implementations of Windows system libraries, services, and other components.

As you can see here, Notepad++ runs well in Wine, especially its earlier versions, which rate rated Gold and Platinum. Wine’s rating system is designed to assist users by giving a rating based on other users’ experience:

Platinum: Works as well as (or better than) on Windows out of the box.

Gold: Works as well as (or better than) on Windows with workarounds.

Silver: Works excellently for normal use, but has some problems for which there are no workarounds.

Bronze: Works, but has some problems for normal use.

Garbage: Problems are severe enough that it cannot be used for the purpose it was designed for.

Download Text Editor For Mac

To install Wine on macOS, you need macOS 10.8 or higher, and you must set Gatekeeper to NOT block unsigned packages. If you meet these prerequisites, you can continue by following the steps below:

Download the installer for Wine Stable from this page.

Double-click on the installer.

Create the fake C: drive where your Windows applications will be installed by entering “winecfg” into the terminal.

Download Notepad++ from its official website.

Place it in any directory you want.

Open the terminal and navigate to the directory with Notepad++.

Start the Notepad++ installation .exe file by typing “wine the-name-of-the-file.exe” into the terminal.

To launch Notepad++ navigate to its folder in the virtual Windows directory and type “wine the-name-of-the-file.exe” into the terminal.

Install Notepad++ on Mac Using VMware

The main advantage of running Notepad++ (or any other application) using Wine is that it runs side-by-side with native macOS applications. But due to how Wine works, minor bugs are to be expected. A bug here and there may be acceptable if you use Notepad++ only to occasionally edit a text file, but they can quickly make Notepad++ unusable for software developers or anyone who wants to use it extensively.

That’s where virtualization software solutions such as VMware Fusion come in. With it, you can set up a virtual Windows machine on your Mac computer and use the virtual machine to execute any Windows software you want. The virtual machine can even share the same clipboard with your Mac, allowing you to effortlessly copy and paste text and images to and from Notepad++ across operating systems.

To get started with VMware Fusion, we recommend you this detailed tutorial from VMware where you can learn everything you need to know about running Windows applications on Intel-based Mac computers. Of course, you’ll also need a copy of Windows.

Despite its extensive features, Textmate remains highly accessible even to casual computers users who only edit text now and then. Using its powerful snippets, macros, and unique scoping system, Textmate can provide features that even a language specific IDE lacks.

Sublime Text supports splits editing, customizable key bindings, menus, snippets, macros, completions, and it’s built from custom components, providing for unmatched responsiveness. Sublime Text is also free to download, but a license must be purchased for continued use. A single personal license costs $80, which is not an insignificant amount considering how many alternative text editors for Mac are available free of charge. But the fact that Sublime Text is among the most popular text editors across all operating systems is perhaps the best testament to its capabilities.
