Features

GNOME LaTeX has many useful features for editing TeX/LaTeX source code, such as:

• Customizable one-click buttons to build, view and convert documents
• Auto-completion of (La)TeX commands
• Graphical lists of symbols for easy insertion
• Templates for new document creation
• Project management
• Summary of the document structure
• Spell checking based on gspell^[2][3]
• Forward and backward search to switch between the sources and the PDF

However, it lacks some features available in other editors:

• Split screen (available in TeXShop, Vim-LaTeX (LaTeX-suite), TeXmacs...)
• Compare (available in WinEdt, Vim-LaTeX (LaTeX-suite), TeXmacs...).
