Computer programs
Two things here: (1) bibweb, which is intended for use by mathematicians
to look up bibliographical information, and (2) various emacs
utilities, mainly tied to editing (La)TeX documents.
Bibweb
Bibweb is a utility for automatically retrieving bibliographical
information from the American Mathematical Society's MathSciNet
program.
For more information, including links to online documentation,
see the Bibweb main page.
Emacs
- Lightning Completion
- Lightning completion is an improvement on whatever
completion Emacs does already; it incorporates ``dynamic
completion'': completion without having to hit the TAB key or
anything else. This is very useful when added to commands
like find-file or switch-to-buffer
or describe-lisp-function.
Most recent version: 0.72 (30 September 2005).
- Ultra-TeX
- Ultra-TeX mode is a major mode for typing TeX documents;
one of its main features is dynamic completion on TeX
commands. It has a few other nice bells and whistles. (This
includes the lightning completion package, by the way.)
Most recent version: 0.72 (30 September 2005).
- LaTeX symbols
- The LaTeX symbols package provides commands in XEmacs to
open up windows with tables of various sorts of symbols. Here is an example of this.
Most recent version: 0.04 (13 August 2001).
- Highlighting Completion
- Highlightling completion is a variant on completion in
Emacs. When typing in the minibuffer (for example), whenever
the text can be completed, the completion is added to the
minibuffer provisionally--it is more a visual cue as to what
would be inserted if you hit the TAB key than anything else.
Most recent version: 0.08 (30 September 2005).
