OpenStudy (k_lynn):

I'm a little confused on what you're asking, but you can use LaTeX basically anywhere on OS. But I"m not sure if you can use it in chats or in messages. I don't know if it has an applications.

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

application*

rvc (rvc):

latex is a coding language,isn't it?

OpenStudy (♪chibiterasu):

What are you asking.

OpenStudy (♪chibiterasu):

You don't have any application you just type it in, there's various tutorials on how to do that in this very section.

rvc (rvc):

so latex is not used anywhere else other that openstudy?

OpenStudy (♪chibiterasu):

What . . . ?

rvc (rvc):

i mean latex is used only for openstudy?

rvc (rvc):

hey

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

LaTeX is used on all kinds of things. It's not just limited to OS. And yes, I believe it is a coding language.

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

@Jaynator495 , the LaTeX king could probably help you out with this one.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

Textbooks, and technical documents / papers are often written in \(\LaTeX\).

rvc (rvc):

is it used in web designing?

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

I would assume so.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

\(\LaTeX\) is not a coding language. It is a mdification to \(\TeX\) and that is a typography descriptive language. The short version is this: Before WYSIWYG text editors there were printing capabilities to do beutiful things, but you could not see them on the screen. \(\TeX\) was invented as a way to describe what should be printed. This let people do high quality printing for a lot less $$$.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

As for the application to render \(\LaTeX\) into PDF files, etc. it will depend on what IS you use. http://latex-project.org/ftp.html
