About this project

This program was my first attempt at both Python and Qt. It was more than fifteen years ago: please don't look too closely at the source code, it might not be pretty! TeXamator has been translated into five languages by its users. It's a simple program, but one of a few in its category, and I'm still receiving emails about it from time to time. It lets users search a folder on their computer for LATEX files, preview existing exercises and export a selection of them to a new LATEX file and/or a pdf. Here is a preview of the GUI:

Implementation

This project is mainly based on three technologies:

  • Python for the core of the program.
  • Qt for the GUI.
  • Poppler to render pdfs.

Source code

The code for this program is hosted on my github.
