Good way to pre/view LaTeX-lines?

Good way to pre/view LaTeX-lines?

[Dmitrii Korobeinikov]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 472 bytes --]

Hi,

I am looking for a comfortable way to view LaTeX (for math formulas) in
org-mode.
I am not working with whole LaTeX files however, but rather with occasional
lines of LaTeX inside an org-mode file.

Good possibilities could be:
1. rendering a LaTeX-line *in the minibuffer* (when a cursor is placed on
that line), or
2. rendering right there in the buffer.

Emacs can show images, so these can't be too hard, right?

Anyone know how to make this work?

Best,
Dmitrii

This shows how:

I don't use it often, but it works very nicely.

Thank you, William! This is great.

After some digging, I still gotta wonder about a few things though.
1. Is there some sort of live-editing feature? By that I mean, being able
to view the result (in a seperate buffer or minibuffer or even on the next
line) as you type out the expression. In particular, it would be nice to
know how to show an image in the minibuffer (and if possible at all) and
how to effectively feed what's under cursor to the latex backend and get
the image.
2. It would be handy to autoremove the image overlay when the cursor is on
the fragment (and restore it when goes outside). I think no redraw should
be necessary unless the the formula is edited.

I guess I would have to dig into org-toggle-latex-fragment to know how to
do these, but any help/pointers would be appreciated.

Regards,
Dmitrii

Exactly what I wanted. I will be using this.

BTW just as a minor point, no need for setq when byte-compiling,
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Compilation-Functions.html#Compilation-Functions
/This function byte-compiles the function definition of symbol, replacing
the previous definition with the compiled one./

And thank you!

Dmitrii
