#SUBPACKAGE NOT FOUND IN TEXSTUDIO INSTALL#

Getting a macro to automate things in TeXStudio.Getting LaTeXdiff installed and working on your machine.So, to get LaTeXdiff up and running, took a little bit of effort, so here’s how I did it.

Now, of course, since the LaTeX world is free, things aren’t quite as slick and user-friendly for installing as paying $100s for M$ products. A tool to accomplish this in LaTeX is LaTeXdiff.

I’m using TeXStudio with MiKTeX in a Windows 10 environment (one step at a time…I’ll get to Linux eventually!).Īs a postgraduate student supervisor, I make changes to text quite a bit, and MS Word’s Track Changes is very good for highlighting these changes. Although I’ve been using MS Word + MathType for 15+ years, the frustration of bad typesetting, and the difficulty in changing formatting globally got too much for me. Recently I’ve started using LaTeX for my more mathematical writing.
