+-----+ To view this file : - use a good text editor. I recommend kwrite (not kate), or emacs - kwrite is the only text editor that I know of, that visually indents an entire paragraph and not just the first line! This makes a huge difference visually! - emacs is powerful, yet sometimes a pain to customise formatting (modes), and very cludgy with commands - do NOT use a word processor! - That can work, but be careful to save in text-only mode (.txt) - Word processors : - may corrupt the files, losing functionality - are clumsy for programming code (i.e. no highlighting of code context : variables, commands, text, etc) - set font as constant width (eg monospace), size = 10pt? - tabs are retained as tabs, not spaces - set tab width = 3 spaces - turn off word wrap and use full screen mode to more easily see very long equations - set auto-indents to the last tabbed position of a line +-----+
