Just an example, there is in fact a surprising huge number of questions editor oriented and non-LaTeX-specific. If this is the policy of the community, of course we have to comply with it. If the question deals with changing the LyX fonts, that is not OK, since it is non-LaTeX-specific as it could apply to a plain text file. So, for example, if a question concerns how to add a LaTeX table in LyX, it can go Comment to diabonasĭiabonas: need editing here, since comments allow only a few lines.Īs far as I understand, we can speak about editors, but questions should be LaTeX specific. To ShreevatsaR, “An answer about an obscure editor that is useful to fewer people will probably get fewer upvotes, but that's the way the system is intended to work.”Ĭonsidering that Emacs is not an obscure editor and here seems second only to Lyx, I am surprised that a question I posed, concerned with spell check TeX files in Emacs, was closed as off topic.Īnd now I wonder and ask you how legitimate is to speak here about editors used to produce LaTeX documents, instead of pure LaTeX. To DavidZaslavsky “Editor-specific answers to an editor-independent question are kind of a separate issue, but I'd say they're also okay. Producing La/TeX from the command line is theoretically possible, but practically impossible so speaking of Emacs sounds to me much like speaking of Eclipse on a Java community.
