From schremmer.alain at gmail.com Sat Jan 7 04:55:55 2017 From: schremmer.alain at gmail.com (Alain Schremmer) Date: Fri, 6 Jan 2017 22:55:55 -0500 Subject: [OS X TeX] TeXShop Message-ID: <9AF7A9A8-46C4-4456-9421-CC3DABB31EEE@gmail.com> I have two screens, an old Cinema and a new big one with a much finer pixel definition. TeXShop remembers on which screen I parked any given pdf, which is very nice, but I would like to know if it might not be possible for it also to remember the scale, which would be even nicer. Not a big deal, though. I am using TexShop 2.47 under 10.6.8 which I don't think is maintained anymore so what I was wondering is if someone might have an idea what to do. Then, I could get one of my sons to do it.

I?m deep into a manuscript (with a few other folks) and one of us is bothered by an orthographic issue. The manuscript (Sidney Coleman?s lecture notes on quantum field theory, which we hope to get out by the summer) has many references to the action, $\int d^{4}x\,\mathscr{L}$, and the scattering matrix. Alas, both are typically denoted with the same symbol, $S$. Usually these two things are far apart enough to not cause confusion, but not always. At the moment we?re using $\mathscr{S}$ for the action and $\mathrm{S}$ for the S-matrix. Probably there is a better solution. We?re reluctant to use anything but some variant of $S$ for each of these. (We could introduce $\mathcal{A}$ for the action or something but that is not very traditional. I wish Feynman had used a different symbol for the action, but it?s too late now?) Has anyone solved the problem, or has anyone seen an elegant solution, to the overloading of this symbol?
