@LeviKornelsen Yea, zooming out, larger cultural changes will be required, like:

- people expecting those files, and
- feeling entitled to use those files,
- standard software (hopefully #typst but who knows?)
- standards of sharing (anything but more Google Drive!)

The cultural standards are so important that a majority of outside contributors to BIND had more of a background in open source software than in RPGs.

I recently developed a thing to turn a Conversations chat* into a PDF.

codeberg.org/moji/typst-conver

That story began with a friend of mine that had got a XMPP group chat where they shared updates and pictures of their latest travel adventure. Now chat is rather ephemeral and they wanted to preserve those memories in an easy accessible format that is PDF. And so I put something together.

* actually any chat as long as you can get the raw data in the expected format

Codeberg.orgtypst-conversationsA parametrized Typst document to visualize a chat conversation with text and image messages — closely matching the design of Conversations.

I wanted to have a real time preview of my #typst document in #vim. I don't fancy to install a plugin for that. I had the feeling, that this should be easier. And I don't want to overwrite my original file, because I know me and I would mess up and loose stuff. So I came up with this:

autocmd TextChanged,TextChangedI *.typ silent! execute 'write! ' . expand('%:r') . '.watch.' . expand('%:e')

This is an automatic command, that triggers on changed text in normal mode (TextChanged) and insert mode (TextChangedI). It only applies to *.typ files and copies them from filename.typ to filename.watch.typ. The silent! makes sure that the status bar does not show the write every time you edit the buffer.

You can now typst watch filename.watch.typ and open filename.watch.pdf in your PDF viewer. The original filename.typ will not be modified until you save it manually.

Today's feeling? Pure joy! #SILE 0.15.10 is available, and it simply wouldn’t have happened without @alerque’s dedication—hats off! 🎩

I know #TeXLaTeX are time-tested champions, and #Typst is making waves. But have you given SILE a chance?
✨ Very decent TeX-like math support
🤖 One of the smartest automated italic correction heuristics
📚 Improved Bib(La)TeX + CSL citation support
🔍 A revamped indexer package

Now’s the perfect time to explore SILE!

@bobidle Also aktiv, meinst du, und nicht nur mit einem automatisiert verschickten Crashdump und einer Zeile Fehlerbeschreibung dazu?

Mmh, zuletzt wäre das dann vermutlich mein MR vor 8 Monaten für #KDE #Kate, um den #Typst #LSP hinzuzufügen. (Ist das echt schon so lange her? Uff, vielleicht sollte ich mal prüfen, ob der überhaupt noch funktioniert und sich nicht in der Zwischenzeit etwas grundlegendes geändert hat.)

For Follow Friday, here's a list of accounts related to #PDF in the fediverse:
• @TeXUsersGroup –info about #TeXLaTeX and the CTAN package registry
• @context – news and updates from the group behind ConTeXt
• @typst – the makers of #Typst
• @libreoffice – the free and open office, which can also be used to create PDFs
• @speedata – a PDF engine not yet supported by pandoc
• @wtfpdf – “Celebrating the majesty, the mystery, the comedy and the catastrophe of PDFs....mostly the latter two.”

I wish that there was a #TeX successor with a similar markup to #LaTeX. Macros, the lack of standardization and all the mess drives me crazy. I know that #Typst exists, sure it's faster, but not as readable. Going with Markdown style is not the right way in my opinion. And you can integrate TeX in other programming languages. I use #JuliaLang with it, which I don't think I can do with #Typst.

Bin gerade auf pdfpc gestoßen.
Das bringt endlich einen vernünftigen Präsentationsmodus für PDFs :blobcatlove:.
Timer, Notizen, Folienübersicht,... Alles dabei, gibts für alle Plattformen und ist vollständig konfigurierbar.

Notizen können bspw auch direkt in LaTeX/Beamer oder Typst erstellt werden.

Genau das hätte ich schon länger gebraucht. Großartig.

Hi there,

anybody with #Typst or #LaTeX templates know-how ?

I'd like to replicate the look and feel of this newsletter:
attac63.site.attac.org/IMG/pdf

I initially did that with Scribus (replicating an old docx document) but there's a lot of minutiae and it's too mouse oriented for my taste.
Hence the LaTeX/Typst plea for a template.

I have found 2 templates for LaTeX:
overleaf.com/latex/templates/l
overleaf.com/latex/templates/n

but they don't seem super customizable.

any pointers to tutorials ?
any #help ?
