Hi All,

After months of work, Karthink and I have prepared a rather large patch-set
completely overhauling the LaTeX preview system. I hope to have a patch set
shortly, but in the mean time it would be good to get some more people testing
this.

To test this feature, please check out the `dev' branch of
<https://git.tecosaur.net/tec/org-mode.git> (it’s the default branch). There are
also some other changes there currently, but I don’t think anything is broken.

You can view the almost-ready path set/diff here:
<https://git.tecosaur.net/tec/org-mode/compare/c8401d2f..6d60738>, see the
ORG-NEWS and org-manual entries to get a bit more of an idea of what’s changed.
The short version is that now:
• Previews are generated in bulk, and hundreds of LaTeX fragments can be processed per second.
• Images are placed continuously as they are generated.
• Preview generation is asynchronous and will not block Emacs.
• Inline previews are aligned and scaled to match the font baseline and size.
• Previews scale along with text when the text scale is changed.
• Previews are coloured to match surrounding text and the active theme.
• SVG previews automatically change colors when the active theme changes.
• Error encountered when compiling LaTeX fragments can be accessed by mousing over preview images.
• Preview overlays can hide and show themselves dynamically based on cursor position.
• Org mode can auto-generate LaTeX previews as you type or edit the text of existing ones.
• Org mode can keep equation numbering consistent by regenerating previews as needed.

If you do come across any issues, please let me know either in a reply here or
the org-mode matrix room. If you could also run
<https://gist.github.com/karthink/0ac48411a81459c0f3fd7557c4e817db> and share the
diagnostic info, that would be quite helpful.

Lastly, Karthink has prepared a video giving an overview of the new
capabilities, you can give it a watch here:
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-AfvuV-bYo>

All the best,
Timothy

I have just tried without native compilation.  No luck!  I get the exact
same error.

Hi!

I just tried that out. As I mentioned here:https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2023-08/msg00092.html, I found that, when using the dvisvgm option for exporting TeX snippets to HTML, the displayed math enclosed by \[…\] is not rendered as equation block, while math environments enclosed by \begin{…} \end{…} are rendered correctly.

Also, the org-latex-preview also rendered (deliberately put) inline \[…\] as inline images.

I guess it could be caused by org-latex-math-environments-re. Could you add support to recognize \[…\] also as equations? Thank you.

Regards,
ywangmy

Hello everyone,

I hope I understand correctly how to use this mail-thread. Thank you very much for such a great enhancement of Org-mode LaTeX preview capabilities. I am on macOS Big Sur and have some troubles with dvisvgm preview in your particular fork. Everything works just fine in stable release of Org-mode, and in your release dvipng method work almost as expected. dvisvgm preview method actually generate svg’s in /var/folders/3m…, but don’t make an overlay after all and equation environments remain being formatted as text.

Best wishes,
Yaroslav

I've got problem when I use this version of org-latex preview:

RUNNING: dvisvgm --page=1- --optimize --clipjoin --relative --no-fonts --bbox=preview -o c\:/Users/artsi0m/AppData/Local/Temp/org-tex-DAJVTr-%9p.svg c\:/Users/artsi0m/AppData/Local/Temp/org-tex-DAJVTr.dvi

ERROR: can't open file 'c\:/Users/artsi0m/AppData/Local/Temp/org-tex-DAJVTr.dvi' for reading

As you can get from the traceback it is problem with windows. But I
remember solving simillar problem with org-fc already[1][2]. I just removed
escaping (quoting) from one of the elisp functions.

So, the main problem of the problem is that on Windows
(shell-quote-argument) function will quote c:/ as c\:/ which breaks
ability to find one or another file. It maybe other function with this
quoting, but I suppose that it is it.

Please, point me in the right direction to solve this problem.
Maybe I could somehow rewrite shell-quote-argument using advices ?
Maybe some more global changes is needed for emacs on windows ?

Thanks a lot for the patience and for reading this email.
Sorry for misspelling or grammar mistakes, english is not my mother tongue.

For clarification:
I specifically configured[1] MS pwsh as default shell for emacs when I
was trying to get org-fc working[2]. I get some progress back then, but
in the end I just installed busybox using scoop[3] and removed
shell-quote-argument from org-fc functions[4].

> Windows box

I need this laptop to run windows, because pirated CAD programms that I
need for studying would run only on Windows.
I also use emacs for studying and I plan to eventually switch to
KiCAD and freecad on the free operating system.

> Perhaps other functions should be used to deal with file names.

I will try to replace two functions that Karthik mentioned
org-latex-preview--tex-compile-async
org-latex-preview--image-extract-async
with their corresponding versions without shell-quote-argument.

But you also gave me another idea:
I could try to set default shell for emacs to sh that comes from
installed busybox package.

If there is an issue with shell-quote-argument behaving on windows like
on POSIX system, than it might be logical to try to launch these
commands using POSIX shell.

Sorry for resending this message again.
I forgot to add CC to mailing list.
I don't know how to do this automatically from gnus unfortunately.
