LaTeX is free software under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public License (LPPL). LaTeX is distributed through CTAN servers or comes as part of many easily installable and usable TeX distributions provided by the TeX User Group (TUG) or third parties. If you run into trouble, visit the help section.
LaTeX is not a stand-alone typesetting program in itself, but document preparation software that runs on top of Donald E. Knuth's TeX typesetting system. TeX distributions usually bundle together all the parts needed for a working TeX system and they generally add to this both configuration and maintenance utilities. Nowadays LaTeX, and many of the packages built on it, form an important component of any major TeX distribution.
Emacs is a Unix based text editor tool which is used by programmers, engineers, students, and system administrators. It is one of the best LaTeX editor for Mac that allows you to add, modify, delete, insert, words, letters, lines, and other units of text. It offers complete built-in documentation. Download Beamer for Mac free. Beamer is the easiest way to stream video from your Mac to Apple TV.
- The LaTeX Git Repository
An easy-to-install open source TeX distribution for MacOSX. It is essentially gwTeX plus XeTeX, with a simple GUI installer and a few extra applications. Information, download and project page. For instructions, see Install an older version of Adobe Reader on Mac OS. Double-click the.dmg file. (If you don't see the Safari Downloads window, click Finder (User Name) Downloads.) Double-click Install Adobe Acrobat Reader DC to start the installation. When asked if you are sure that you want to open the file, click Open. 3,771 downloads Updated: February 15, 2021 Demo.

The LaTeX team cannot guarantee that TeX distributions, even recent ones, contain the most recent version of LaTeX. It may happen that you need a more recent LaTeX than the one that your favourite TeX distribution carries, e.g., in order to get a particular bug fix. In that case you will need to fetch LaTeX from CTAN and install it on top of your distribution. See below for details.
TeX Distributions
If you’re new to TeX and LaTeX or just want an easy installation, geta full TeX distribution. The TeX Users Group (TUG) has a list of notable distributionsthat are entirely, or least primarily, free software.
Linux
Check your Linux distributions software source for a TeX distribution including LaTeX. You can also install the current TeX Live distribution directly---in fact this may be advisable as many Linux distributions only contain older versions of TeX Live, see Linux TeX Live package status for details.
Mac OS
The MacTeX distribution contains everything you need, including a complete TeX system with LaTeX itself and editors to write documents.
Windows
Check out the MiKTeX or proTeXt or TeX Live distributions; they contain a complete TeX system with LaTeX itself and editors to write documents.
Online
LaTeX online services like Papeeria, Overleaf, ShareLaTeX, Datazar, and LaTeX base offer the ability to edit, view and download LaTeX files and resulting PDFs.
CTAN
You can obtain LaTeX from CTAN, which is theprimary source of distribution for LaTeX. In order for your downloadedLaTeX to be of any use, you have to obtain and set up a TeX systemfirst. You can either install a TeX distribution (see above) or get aTeX system from CTAN. Ifyou use a TeX distribution then it will include a version of LaTeX sothis will probably make things easier for you; but you may have areason not to do this.
The LaTeX Git Repository
These days the LaTeX development sources are kept in a GitHubrepository (previously we used SVN).
Anyone can access it and download the files, butsubmission is restricted to team members. The repository is located at https://github.com/latex3/latex2eand from that browser page you may explore the files, clone therepository or download the files in a .zip archive (roughly 25Mb) byusing the appropriate buttons.
If you are familiar with Git you can also clone the repository using thecommand line or your favorite Git fontend tool, e.g.,
which needs about 50Mb of space.Alternatively, you can do a Subversion checkout from the command line, e.g.,
which will just checkout the current files.But be aware that a SVN checkout of the form
will download all files including theirhistory (back to 2009) and amounts to roughly 1.4Gb so that is quite large.
Note: If you had bookmarked the old SVN repository please update thatbookmark to the new GIT repository as we have finally removed it.
A note on Git pull requests
Git repositories support distributed development and allow people toprovide change sets that are made available through so called pullrequests, so that the maintainers of a program can “pull the suggestedchanges” into the main repository.
While we appreciate contributions, we think that for the core LaTeXsoftware pull requests are usually not a good approach (unless thechange has be already discussed and agreed upon).The stability of LaTeX is very important and this means that changes tothe kernel are necessarily very conservative. It also means that a lotof discussion has to happen before any changes are made. So if you dodecide to post a pull request, please bear this in mind: we doappreciate ideas, but cannot always integrate them into the kernel andit is quite likely that we reject updates made in this way.
If you want to discuss a possible contribution before (or instead of)making a pull request, we suggest you raise the topic first onthe LATEX-L list or drop aline to the team.
Historic LaTeX
Ulrik Vieth has collected historic versions of LaTeX from LaTeX 2.0for TeX 1.0 (released on 11 December 1983) onwards. You can find thematftp://ftp.tug.org/historic/macros/latex-saildart/.There might even be some earlier versions. All files have been pulledfrom the SAILDART archive site at http://z.baumgart.org/ (no longeronline) which was based on archive tapes from SAIL at Stanford.
More historic material can be found at ftp://ftp.tug.org/historic (you may not be able to open this in all browsers — alternatively try https://www.math.utah.edu/pub/tex/historic/).
The best software ever!
Light Show
MusicBeam is an open source software which enables you to use your home projector to create an entire laser show for your next party. MusicBeam is music triggered and allows you to adjust nearly every detail of the performance.
Requirements
MusicBeam is Java based and runs under every major operating system. There is no installation required. All you need is a projector plugged into a laptop, throw in a fog machine and you're ready to go!
Open Source
MusicBeam is developed with all passion by people who love dance music. That's why it's under the MIT Licence which makes is free of charge for any kind of useage. Feel invited to participate on our GitHub page and create and share your own effects..
Here is what we got.
Derby
RGB-Spots
Polygon
Strobe
It's not just free but Open Source!
Windows
Any Questions?
'MusicBeam' is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash. (Mac OSX)
This is due to Gatekeeper, which forces developers to pay Apple $100 each year. Here is a guide how to disable Gatekeeper: HT202491
I only see a grey window (Windows)
Please make sure to plug in a Projector before you launch MusicBeam. You may also try 32-bit version. This has worked for some users in the past.
Do I need a Projector?
You can test the output on a second display but you’ll need a projector for the party.
Do I need a Fog machine?
No but I looks much nicer with a little fog just like a real laser or light show.
I can't open MusicBeam, apparently a file called 'javaw.exe' is missing.
MusicBeam is based on Java, meaning that Java is required to run MusicBeam. You can download Java for free at Java.com
Keen in mind to deactivate Java in your browser.
My display turns black when I start the projector, what’s wrong?
Make sure your projector is connected and running as an extended desktop (extended to the right side), not mirror mode! You have to make sure to select the right display/projector otherwise the effect stage will be initiated on primary display. The default color is black ;)
Can I use MusicBeam professionally or commercially?
Yes, that’s the Idea about Open Source Software but we are always excited to know who uses our software and what for. Please tell us what you are doing so we can keep improving MusicBeam.
Can I use line in as audio source?
Yes, the audio source is set to system default. Just change your default audio input before starting the software and you are ready to go.
What kind of video projector do I need?
This really depends on the room size. The two important factors are (Ansi) Lumen and Contrast. The more Lumen the brighter the light, the higher the contrast the better. For a decent home party we would go with 2000 Lumen and a 1000:1 Contrast.
Where is the difference to a real laser show?
Download Beamer With Licence
Of course a projectors light is not as bright as a laser, apart of that, there are no limitations on the effects. If you´re able to write your own effects you could even imitate the laser-effects you like.
Can I use SoundToLight effects with MusicBeam?
We know of 'beamer to light', 'sound to light' or 'beamer as light' from Klomeister. But it's aperently discontinued by Klomeister. Builds this entire software from scratch to be easy to use and available for all operating systems. Therefore ther is no compatibility with SoundToLight nor any link between both projects.
How can I contact a developer?
You can alsways use our GitHub and Facebook Page or just send us a mail to: musicbeam@johanneshoppe.com
