[EXTERNAL] Re: TeX on Windows? [success!] [BUT PCTeX?]

Dear Deyan,

Thanks for the detailed response about TeX interfaces. I have used Overleaf and ShareLaTeX before that and I agree that it is a great tool.

I am a "mathematical physicist" who has a 40 some year career of publishing academic articles in general relativity, where TeX/LaTeX has proved invaluable. I started with TeX at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in 1981 which was a prehistoric era for plain TeX. I did some TeX macro programming before LaTeX came onto the scene and even after with a triennial physics proceedings I edited the past quarter century
http://www34.homepage.villanova.edu/robert.jantzen/mg/procs/index.htm
I still have Stephan's 5 volumes on TeX sitting untouched on the shelf from those days, together with a bunch of other TeX books. I am approaching my own expiration date, so in the next years I will have to toss everything.

So although I read the emails from TUG and scan the issues of TUGBoat, I am more of a clueless bystander now, awakened by this sudden realization of the loss of my trusted tool (PCTeX) at some future date, but certainly for this book project which is just basically a hobby. [I will continue using PCTeX except for the PDF export of my book.]

My thanks again to all of you for coming to my rescue.

Hi Robert,

On your general question:

> I have a general question. Most of the regular people like me are on either a PC or a Mac, and don't use Linux or Unix like typical TeXperts (my impression). How is it that there is not room in the market for an economical user interface like PCTeX, which apparently has crashed as a company?

My impression has been that "most of the regular people on PC or a Mac" would not need the level of sophistication provided by TeX and use an alternative solution (such as MS Office). This is definitely the case in e.g. the life sciences or the humanities.

In the hard sciences / technical writing circles, the developer lifecycle necessitates certain common tools, such as advanced text editors or IDEs. Which then in turn leads to large communities who rely on TeX-oriented plugins in their editors. The "LaTeX Workshop" extension to VSCode for example, first released in 2016, today reports 1.2 million installations:
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=James-Yu.latex-workshop<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmarketplace.visualstudio.com%2Fitems%3FitemName%3DJames-Yu.latex-workshop&data=04%7C01%7Crobert.jantzen%40villanova.edu%7C220389a908f346217c9a08d92064d4a7%7C765a8de5cf9444f09cafae5bf8cfa366%7C0%7C0%7C637576439730817481%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=TaKvsPbysEWVglL8AwvtJOvtQ6hRzK4SvA18EGXZFEw%3D&reserved=0>

Another modern trend is moving away from local installation and relying on web editing services. As the biggest current example, the Overleaf team reported reaching 6 million users in 2020:
https://www.overleaf.com/blog/reaching-six-million-users-in-an-unprecedented-six-months<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.overleaf.com%2Fblog%2Freaching-six-million-users-in-an-unprecedented-six-months&data=04%7C01%7Crobert.jantzen%40villanova.edu%7C220389a908f346217c9a08d92064d4a7%7C765a8de5cf9444f09cafae5bf8cfa366%7C0%7C0%7C637576439730827442%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=zpWQEQ3jvZi302xu%2FJkpq6dzpRugRNAHE2Qg8W4z1yA%3D&reserved=0>

The cloud-editing paradigm is much preferred exactly by casual users who do not feel interested in learning the intricate details of software installation and "power user" techniques. It is also a paradigm with a clear business model, and a likely trend to continue in the next decade.

Separately, there are actually tens of support tools for TeX that are available for use today, each serving a different subcommunity / technology stack. This (incomplete!) wikipedia article compares 24 of them at the moment:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_TeX_editors<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FComparison_of_TeX_editors&data=04%7C01%7Crobert.jantzen%40villanova.edu%7C220389a908f346217c9a08d92064d4a7%7C765a8de5cf9444f09cafae5bf8cfa366%7C0%7C0%7C637576439730827442%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=ML9cR4Wtvc4P6RkjMDkO5TgQkOAv57Jq0rCFdk7wv2s%3D&reserved=0>

Whether any of them fits your exact needs or not, the point is that there is a somewhat high bar for newly built tools to enter the scene. They would have to put a lot of effort to reach the quality of existing tools, many of which are free to use, and then would have to justify a price tag that attracts enough paying users long-term. Not impossible, but also not a particularly inviting business proposition. I've had some first-person experience on that end, as a developer for one of the newer projects that attempted entering this space (Authorea), so my comments are colored through that experience. That company ended up acquired by Wiley, which wasn't necessarily our first-choice business outcome at the onset.

Greetings,
Deyan

Hi Guys!



Okay, I finally got TexWorks working with TexLive! I had already installed it with MikTeX before and it crashed immediately on my book then, but apparently TexLive fixed that problem. I replaced the non-ASCII character for a hyphen that tripped up the typesetting noted by Alan (Philip? Okay I got lost in allt the messages), and put "\protect" in front of \mathbb{R} in a section heading which also derailed the typesetting. Now it typesets flawlessly!



BUT are my previous installations of MikTeX irrelevant to this TeXLive installation? My original MikTeX from 2 years ago will NOT uninstall. Then I tried to install a new version renaming its file location to MikTeX2.9new from MikTeX 2.9, so now there are two. If I delete the new one and eventually my university IT people are successful in deleting MikTeX (I guess I can just leave it), will that affect TexLive? I clearly am clueless about just exactly what TeXLive is, and did not see any plain language description of it. I am guessing they are totally independent:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TeX_Live<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FTeX_Live&data=04%7C01%7Crobert.jantzen%40villanova.edu%7C220389a908f346217c9a08d92064d4a7%7C765a8de5cf9444f09cafae5bf8cfa366%7C0%7C0%7C637576439730837467%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=sqG6q%2Bg5fS24zyv67%2BL332dpTyNxVwn%2FvM4yrdvgI24%3D&reserved=0>



Does anyone know about the bug in uninstalling MikTeX on a windows 10 machine? It reports an error and refuses to uninstall.



Finally, a big thank you to the support you have shown me! When I took a shot in the dark emailing a few addresses at TUG, I had no clue what the support at tug.org<mailto:support at tug.org> email was for or who it went to. I remember texhax from last century when I had been printing it out and keeping them in the late 1980s.



I have a general question. Most of the regular people like me are on either a PC or a Mac, and don't use Linux or Unix like typical TeXperts (my impression). How is it that there is not room in the market for an economical user interface like PCTeX, which apparently has crashed as a company? I have invested nearly 40 years in using TeX, then LaTeX, all this time paying my annual individual membership to TUG because I wanted to give back for what TeX has done for me, even hosting a local Philadelphia Tex Users Group (remember TV Guide? They used to use TeX for the program grids, we even had Stephan Bechtolsheim in for a weekend wizard workshop at their headquarters nearby Villanova) in the late eighties and early nineties, since which I have been blissfully using PCTeX and unaware of the efforts one must go through to have a free installation. When I finished installing TeXLive, I had no idea what to do with it. I stared at the TexLive window, looking for some hint of what next.  Someone on this list had to tell me that TeXWorks was the interface (I already had some experience in the past with that).



So I guess this is goodbye for now, unless anyone has any thoughts on my musings above.



Arrivederci,

bob

PS Notice what our MS Exchange server does to URL's on incoming email at Villanova (scroll down below), totally garbling the actual URL to make it unreadable! To "protect" us. It seems a more enterprising programmer could make a way of showing the actual URL in an HTML formatted incoming email while pointing to the protected garbled URL underneath. Oh well.

Oh, and in case anyone else is wondering about that \226 nonsense: it's an artifact of my text editor (emacs) that it's showing me the octal raw byte:



octal 226 = decimal 150 = en dash[0] in Windows' code page 1252 [1].
