This is the recommended procedure if you want to work on the source code or if you want to stay up to date with the latest changes of the code.
Note: The procedure below uses git clone to download the source code. If you not only want to build TeXworks, but also package it to share with others, have a look at the file PACKAGING in the source tree.
Texworks build view compile mac os x#
Thanks to Charlie Sharpsteen for researching and documenting this Mac OS X build procedure. Thanks to Alain Delmotte and Tomek for their help in researching, testing, and documenting the Windows build procedure.įor Mac users, see the page about building on Mac OS X using Homebrew. Then, you run a LaTeX compiler (we'll be using MiKTeX) to turn the file foo.tex into foo.pdf. LaTeX works like this: First, you use a text editor (we'll be using TeXworks) to create a LaTeX document foo.tex (note: 'foo' is standing in for your file name). The exact set of packages needed will depend how your distribution arranges things some examples are given here.įor Windows users wanting to try a build, see the page about installing and using the MinGW tools. Setup and Tutorial for Using LaTeX with TeXworks / MiKTeX Introduction. Next to that you will see something like pdfLaTeX+MakeIndex+BibTeX. You just need standard build tools (gcc, make, cmake, etc.), and the development files (not just runtime libraries) for Qt, poppler, hunspell, and dbus. Now at the top of TeXworks you will see a green button. If you have corrections, additions, or updates to the instructions given below - or instructions for another distribution not covered yet -, please contact us (preferably on the mailing list or via email).īuilding TeXworks on typical GNU/Linux systems is fairly straightforward.
