Debian Science typesetting packages

AUCTeX is a comprehensive customizable integrated environment for writing input files for TeX/LaTeX/ConTeXt/Texinfo using GNU Emacs.

It supports processing source files by running TeX and related tools (such as output filters, post processors for generating indices and bibliographies, and viewers) from inside Emacs. AUCTeX allows browsing through the errors reported by TeX, while it moves the cursor directly to the reported error, and displays some documentation for that particular error. This will even work when the document is spread over several files.

AUCTeX can automatically indent LaTeX source, either line by line or for an entire document, and has a special outline feature which can greatly assist in getting an overview of a document.

AUCTeX is written entirely in Emacs Lisp, and may therefore be enhanced with new features for specific needs. It comes with a large range of handy Emacs macros. It is a GNU project, and documentation for all its features is accessible via the Emacs info browser.

The biblatex package by Philipp Lehman is becoming the definitive citation management tool for LaTeX users. Biblatex has relied on the venerable BibTeX program only for sorting and generating a very generic .bbl file without any formatting instruction. Everything else is taken care of by biblatex, which provides a powerful and flexible macro interface for authors of citation styles.

Biber offers a large superset of BibTeX functionality for BibLaTeX users. In addition it offers full UTF-8 (Unicode 6.0) capabilities, fully customisable sorting, output to GraphViz to help visualise complex crossrefs, support for remote data sources, structural validation of the data against the (customisable) data model, and a lot more.

Bibus is a bibliographic database which has been developed with LibreOffice/ OpenOffice.org in mind. It can directly insert citations and format the bibliographic index in an open OpenOffice.org Writer document. The main features are

• hierarchical organization of the references with user-defined keys
• designed for multiuser-environments (share databases between users)
• a search engine supporting live queries
• on-line PubMed access
• import of PubMed (Medline), EndNote/Refer, RIS and BibTeX records.

Bibus will use an SQLite-database by default for storage (via the SQLite3 module available in Python >2.5). But it also supports MySQL-databases. If you want to use a MySQL-database, make sure, that you have the python-mysqldb package installed.

Convert between the following bibliographic data formats: BibTeX, COPAC, EndNote refer, EndNote XML, Pubmed XML, ISI web of science, US Library of Congress MODS XML, RIS, and Word 2007 bibliography.

This package provides command line tools bib2xml, copac2xml, end2xml endx2xml, isi2xml, med2xml, ris2xml which convert to MODS XML format, modsclean which reformats MODS XML, and a matching set of commands xml2ads, xml2bib, xml2end, xml2isi, xml2ris, xml2wordbib which convert from MODS XML.

cb2bib is a program to extract bibliographic references from unformatted and non standard sources, like:

• email alerts;
• journal Web pages;
• and most interestingly PDF files.

Output references are written to BibTeX-formatted files. Other features include:

• article files can be linked and renamed by dragging them onto the cb2Bib window;
• editing and browsing BibTeX files;
• citing references, searching references and the full contents of the referenced documents;
• inserting bibliographic metadata to documents;
• writing short notes that interrelate several references.

Debian GNU/Linux is widely used at universities to do research and to write papers with LaTeX. The package diploma contains examples which illustrate the possible ways to do this effectively with Debian GNU/Linux. Each example consists of a source tree where you can do "make" in the top level directory and then the source code is compiled, the measurement data are processed, and the results are converted into nice figures. Then the text is processed and combined with the figures to a print file.

FeynMF is a LaTeX package for easy drawing of professional-quality Feynman diagrams, illustrations that depict the fundamental interactions of subatomic particles. The diagrams may be created using either the Metafont or MetaPost programs. FeynMF lays out most diagrams satisfactorily from the structure of the graph without any need for manual intervention. Nevertheless all the power of Metafont or MetaPost is available for more obscure cases.

Note that you will need the texlive-metapost package in order to use the MetaPost-based version of FeynMF.

Gummi is a LaTeX editor based on GTK3. The basic features are:

• Live preview pane for the compiled document,
• BibTeX integration,
• Helpers for tables and matrices,
• Exporting to PDF,

• Syntax highlighting,
• Spellchecking,
• Document statistics,
• Persistent configuration.

A set of utilities for manipulating DSC compliant postscript. The following programs are included:

impose: A preprocessor to pstops for creating 2-up printouts. It tries to remove white space from the printout by probing the original postscript for the printed area's bounding box. This makes the output more esthetic than a simplistic layout of non-cropped original pages.

bboxx: Extracts the bounding boxes of a postscript file, with the option of entering the bounding box into the file. This program uses the ghostscript bbox device.

fixtd: Sets options in a Postscript file asking the printer to turn on tumbling or duplex printing.

psbl: Rearranges pages in a file to create booklets.

Ipe supports making small figures for inclusion into LaTeX documents as well as making multi-page PDF presentations Ipe's main features are:

• Entry of text as LaTeX source code. This makes it easy to enter mathematical expressions, and to reuse the LaTeX-macros of the main document. In the display text is displayed as it will appear in the figure.
• Produces pure Postscript/PDF, including the text. Ipe converts the LaTeX-source to PDF or Postscript when the file is saved.
• It is easy to align objects with respect to each other (for instance, to place a point on the intersection of two lines, or to draw a circle through three given points) using various snapping modes.
• Users can provide ipelets (Ipe plug-ins) to add functionality to Ipe. This way, Ipe can be extended for each task at hand.
• The text model is based on Unicode, and has been tested with Korean, Chinese, and Japanese.

Package lua5.3 is recommended if using Ipe with LaTeX.

Package texlive-latex-recommended enables unicode text entry (for accented characters).

Converts figures that were made with Ipe 5 to the format understood by Ipe 6. You can then run ipe6upgrade (from package ipe) to convert them to Ipe 7 format. Ipe is a drawing editor for creating figures, provided in package ipe.

JabRef is a graphical Java application for editing BibTeX (.bib) databases. JabRef lets you organize your entries into overlapping logical groups, and with a single click limit your view to a single group or an intersection or union of several groups. You can customize the entry information shown in the main window, and sort by any of the standard BibTeX fields. JabRef can autogenerate BibTeX keys for your entries. JabRef also lets you easily link to PDF or web sources for your reference entries.

JabRef can import from and export to several formats, and you can customize export filters. JabRef can be run as a command line application to convert from any import format to any export format.

An application to manage bibliography databases in the BibTeX format. KBibTeX can be used as a standalone program, but can also be embedded into other KDE applications (e.g. as bibliography editor into Kile).

KBibTeX can query online resources (e.g. Google scholar) via customizable search URLs. It is also able to import complete datasets from NCBI Pubmed. It also supports tagging references with keywords and manages references to local files.

BibTeX files can be exported into HTML, XML, PDF, PS and RTF format using a number of citation styles.

Kile is a user-friendly LaTeX source editor and TeX shell for KDE.

The source editor is a multi-document editor designed for .tex and .bib files. Menus, wizards and auto-completion are provided to assist with tag insertion and code generation. A structural view of the document assists with navigation within source files.

The TeX shell integrates the various tools required for TeX processing. It assists with LaTeX compilation, DVI and postscript document viewing, generation of bibliographies and indices and other common tasks.

Kile can support large projects consisting of several smaller files.

latexdiff compares two LaTeX files and marks up significant differences between them (i.e. a diff for LaTeX files). It generates a new LaTeX file containing the annotated differences.

Various options are available for visual markup using standard LaTeX packages such as 'color.sty'. Changes not directly affecting visible text, for example in formatting commands, are still marked in the LaTeX source.

A rudimentary revision facilility is provided by another Perl script, 'latexrevise', which accepts or rejects all changes. Manual editing of the difference file can be used to override this default behaviour and accept or reject selected changes only.

JLaTeXmath library provides a set of Java classes for displaying (complex) mathematical formulas as part of a Java application. Some use cases are:

• Displaying text with embedded formulas (in an editor pane, a JavaHelp page, ...)
• Make a combo box which provides the user with a choice between various formulas.
• Have a slider with ticks that display their values not as decimal numbers, but as exact values, e.g., fractions, square roots or any combination of these.
• Display the formula together with the graph of a function.

LyX is an almost WYSIWYG-frontend for LaTeX. It makes the power and typesetting quality of LaTeX available for people who are used to word processors. Since LyX supports LaTeX's concept of general mark-ups, it is even easier and faster to create professional quality documents with it than with usual word processors. It is also possible to use LaTeX commands within LyX, so nothing of LaTeX's power is lost.

Currently the following frontends are supported: libxml2 (tree view using libxml2 API), libxml2 reader (event view using libxml2 reader API), GMetaDOM (tree view using DOM API), custom (application-specific view with application-provided callbacks).

GtkMathView renders MathML documents through a backend whose purpose is to provide an interface between the portable rendering engine and the platform-specific capabilities (like retrieving fonts, drawing on the screen, and so on). Currently the following backends are provided: GTK+, GTK+ widget, PostScript, SVG, AbiWord.

This package includes utilities to view and render MathML documents.

GNU TeXmacs is a free scientific text editor, which was both inspired by TeX and GNU Emacs.

The editor allows you to write structured documents via a WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) and a user friendly interface. New styles may be created by the user. The program implements high-quality typesetting algorithms and TeX fonts, which help you to produce professionally looking documents.

The high typesetting quality still goes through for automatically generated formulas, which makes TeXmacs suitable as an interface for computer algebra systems. TeXmacs also supports the Guile/Scheme extension language, so that you may customize the interface and write your own extensions to the editor.
