So, no difference here for same window approach. The separate window is
also possible (though not my choice), but this time we have the control
over the behavior of the viewer. Moreover, it is possible to split
window as mr. Younes says.
Abdel please ;-)
horizontally splited window updated as you type? That would be a
killer feature!
why not?? we can have a look at whizzytex for this purpose.. that is
exactly what they are doing over emacs.. But, performance maybe the
issue here. (No, I am not using whizzytex extensively! I am a lyx guy..
:) )
Splitting windows is just a matter of taking the time to read Qt4 doc
and implemented it. Bo Peng has already implemented real time latex
generation (on the current paragraph only). From there you have two choices:
1) adapt the "Instant Preview" feature to this "View source feature" and
show the generated png in the split window.
2) convert the real-time generated LateX to dvi (or pdf) and show the
result in an embedded viewer like okular.
1) might be easier to do...
