Powerpoint plugins

• TexPoint is a very nice Powerpoint add-in that enables the easy use of Latex symbols and formulas in Powerpoint presentations. It has two main modes of operation: inline and display. In inline mode you can use Latex symbol-macro invocations such as "\alpha^2 \times \beta_0" on your Powepoint slides. In the display mode you can write any Latex source and Latex is run to produce a bitmap that is then inserted on the slide. The bitmap remembers its Latex source so you can modify it later.

Graphical User Interfaces

• Kile is a user friendly Tex/LaTeX integrated editor
