JTeX is a sophisticated high-level language designed to simplify and enhance the process of creating PDF files. It introduces a set of new syntax elements designed to streamline your workflow, while fully maintaining compatibility with traditional LaTeX code. This means you can write in LaTeX within JTeX, and your code will remain untouched by the compiler, establishing JTeX as an exceptional extension to LaTeX.
The real power of JTeX lies in its dedicated JTeX Client, which enables seamless conversion of .jtex
files to .tex
files. Furthermore, it offers automatic conversion of these files to PDF format, making document creation more straightforward than ever.
JTeX currently supports the following operating systems:
- Windows
- macOS (Darwin)
Before you begin the installation process, ensure that MikTex is installed on your system, and the terminal can recognise the command pdflatex. If you haven't installed it already, you can download it from the official MikTex website.
The installation process varies depending on your operating system.
- Navigate to the directory containing the
setup.bat
file in the command prompt. - Execute the script by typing
setup.bat

. - After the script has finished running, restart your computer to update the system path variables.
- Open a terminal window.
- Navigate to the directory containing the install.sh file using the cd command.
- Execute the script by typing
./install.sh
and pressing Enter.
After installation, you can run JTeX by typing jtex [help]
