Kile

claimed by KDE

Kile is a user friendly TeX/LaTeX editor for the KDE desktop environment. It simplifies the creation of LaTeX documents.

TeXShop

TeXShop is a TeX previewer for Mac OS X, written in Cocoa. Since pdf is a native file format on OS X, TeXShop uses "pdftex" and "pdflatex" rather than "tex" and "latex" to typeset; these programs in the standard teTeX distribution of TeX produce pdf output instead of dvi output.

Flexirest

xepersian

xepersian is a package for typesetting Persian in LaTeX over XeTeX.

xeguji

This project aims to provide a solution of typesetting gezhu (warichu) used in guji (ancient Chinese books). It also hosts the XeLaTeX port of zpxing@ctex's guji.cls by LoveHeaven@ustc and me. With xeguji.sty and guji.cls, one can typeset well-formatted guji with gezhu in a somewhat simple ... [More] manner. Still under development, and XeTeX is buggy in typing with Chinese fonts in vertical mode. New note: this project is no longer active. Refer to gezhu.sty instead to typeset gezhu. [Less]

zhspacing

zhspacing fine-tunes several details in typesetting Chinese using XeTeX and XeLaTeX, such as automatic font switch between Chinese and Western characters, skip adjustment of fullwidth punctuations, punctuation prohibitions, automatic skip insertion between Chinese and Western characters or math ... [More] formulas, etc. Notice 08.4.5. For your information, currently zhspacing is not the only package for Chinese typesetting under XeLaTeX, and it doesn't update often. Mr. Sun Wenchang's xeCJK is probably a better choice for most users. The basic usage is like this: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{zhspacing} \zhspacing \begin{document} 中Eng文混排，“标点压缩”，间 距 调 整 …… \end{document}Typesetting Chinese document using XeLaTeX + zhspacing is much like using LaTeX + CJK + CJKpunct, except that you don't need to add the annoying ~ between Chinese and English for spacing adjustment, and opening punctuations (line-end prohibition) can occur at the beginning of the line, which is forbid in CJKpunct. The amount of adjusted space can be easily customized to your own taste. A recent feature of zhspacing is that it supports typesetting Chinese in math formulas, using zhmath.sty. And using zhfont.sty can simplify font definition. Underdot is now supported using zhfont. [Less]

ctex-kit

CTeXKit 是一套 TeX/LaTeX/ConTeXt 宏包、脚本和相关资源文件的集合，专为中文 TeX 用户开发，尤其是使用简体中文的 TeX 用户。 这个项目的目的是将许多现有的努力整合起来，包括 xeCJK, zhspacing, 基于 LuaTeX 的中文支持，等等。 这个项目由 CTeX 社区维护。 [Less]

xlingpap

XLingPaper is a way to author and archive linguistic papers or books using XML. Many of us prefer writing XLingPaper files with the XMLmind XML Editor. It makes writing XML much easier than other XML-oriented editors we've used. This project contains not only the XLingPaper files, but also the ... [More] configuration files for using XLingPaper with the XMLmind XML Editor. For reasons why XLingPaper is a good choice, please see Simons and Black (2009) (http://www.sil.org/silepubs/abstract.asp?id=52287) for an explanation of the key notions and motivations. Then see Black (2009) (http://www.sil.org/silepubs/abstract.asp?id=52286) for how XLingPaper addresses these notions. (These are preprint versions of these papers.) See also http://www.sil.org/~blacka/xlingpap/index.htm for much more, including steps to download and install. [Less]
