• Adding Comments to the Blog  28 Jul 2023  the blog jekyll rust nixos

  If you’re browsing my blog via the website and not solely through the RSS feed, you may have noticed something new at the bottom of every post. That’s right, the blog now supports comments! While that’s as simple as a toggle checkbox in some sites, due to this blog being a “static site”, it was much more involved.

• Setting up SyncTeX with Neovim and Skim  29 Jan 2023  neovim latex rust  updated 01 Feb 2023

  I have… a lot of feelings towards Neovim, but putting those aside for the time being, it’s still my preferred LaTeX editor on my Mac. What my LaTeX editing setup was missing¹, though, was the ability to “jump to” a location in the output PDF from the code, or to jump to a location in the code by clicking on the PDF. That capability is provided by SyncTeX, which causes the typesetting process to output a doc.synctex.gz file² which, when read by a compatible editor/PDF viewer, contains location information to enable the jumping.

  1. as compared to Overleaf, which is how I used to work on LaTeX documents ↩

  2. assuming a doc.pdf output; we could also say that the SyncTeX file is <filename>.synctex.gz ↩
