Different Text Editors¶

I tried a few different text editors, but this one I really like and it is very similar to coding in MATLAB. It is a tool called JUNO that basically links a nice text editor called Atom to julia, so that you can run julia interactively.

Atom¶

Atom Flight Manual

Useful things:

spell check <https://github.com/atom/spell-check>:

ctrl+shift+;

Markdown Preview Package:

ctr+shift+m

https://github.com/atom/markdown-preview

Subscripts:

variable\_1+tab

Using \(/LaTeX\) with Atom. It was suggested to use Tex Live <https://www.tug.org/texlive/acquire-netinstall.html> Where the quick install instructions are here<https://www.tug.org/texlive/quickinstall.html> https://atom.io/packages/latex

TeX Live¶

I use this with Atom.

https://www.tug.org/texlive/ https://atom.io/packages/latex

After installing TeX Live: * Add /usr/local/texlive/2016/texmf-dist/doc/info to INFOPATH. * Add /usr/local/texlive/2016/texmf-dist/doc/man to MANPATH (if not dynamically found). * Most importantly, add /usr/local/texlive/2016/bin/x86_64-linux to your PATH for current and future sessions.

To do this change the bashrc file:

gksu gedit /etc/bash.bashrc

Paste this at the end:

PATH=/usr/local/texlive/2016/bin/x86_64-linux:$PATH; export PATH # make sure that there are NO spaces
MANPATH=/usr/local/texlive/2016/texmf-dist/doc/man:$MANPATH; export MANPATH
INFOPATH=/usr/local/texlive/2016/texmf-dist/doc/info:$INFOPATH; export INFOPATH

Then in Atom, go to settings and add the path to the texlive:

/usr/local/texlive/2016/bin/x86_64-linux

Potential Issues¶

If the julia binary is not where it belongs ( for instance I put it in my /opt/... folder)
- Change the julia .config file (in Atom) to the proper folder (where julia binaries are)
Otherwise
- leave it as : juliaPath: “julia”

I had to:

Pkg.clone("https://github.com/JunoLab/Juno.jl")
Pkg.update()

Make sure you close both atom and julia after installation. Now you should be able to run julia from Atom!
