I always find plugins to be bloat for just auto-compiling and previewing my linguistics work in Vim, so this is a much more lightweight alternative. Cheers!

I Have a quick question about this. I have it working mostly using mupdf and both commands work but shift s opens another instance of mupdf rather than just updating the current window. Can anyone help with this?
I have a small issue. The first command works, but the second command Shift+S doesn't open the compiled pdf in a new window. I typed everything letter for letter and have mupdf installed on my system. Any reason this wouldn't work? I even tried Andy's alternative with Shift+S being defined as :! mupdf-open %
I managed to at least map to compile latex on windows terminal via cmd.exe. But I had trouble getting replicating the same result of previewing the latex like you did by using sumatra. Don't know how to do the equivalent of calling the filename, substituting text, then having that put in front of !sumatra.
Great video! But this is not working for me at all. I can get Shift-I to work, but not Shift-S. No PDF window opens for me. I also cannot find 'pdflatex' on my system, so I don't know what PATH to configure for it. What do I need to have already installed on my system in order to get the PDF window to appear? I think I'm missing something. Thanks Trev!
Hey great job to start! Now this is probably outside the scope of the video, but for some reason vim for me returns ! Undefined control sequence and I have no idea why. I am working on windows 10. The command prompt for vimrun.exe opens normally and pdflatex runs but it doesn't do much else. Any thoughts as to why?
It's been a long while since this comment. I ended up on linux after all and just removed windows all together. Started with Ubuntu and moved to Manjaro later. Thanks for the tip though
@@gregoririgakis7868 Literally on this journey now. Have dual booted ubuntu with windows and if I didnt need Microsoft office for univeristy I would delete my windows partition.

Very cool video. Much simpler than having to deal with plugins that come with 30 extra features.
Thanks dude, exactly what i have looking for
You're welcome, I had been looking for this for ages myself, so I just had a friend help me with sed, and we got everything up and running!
Very usefull video, thanks :)

3:17 does this setup has live preview? or not?
this is quality content, Trev!
have you worked with Praat before? if yes, please do a video on it.
Thanks! 😃I'll try to do a video on it at sometime
Happy May day.

The prerequisites are that you have mupdf installed along with pdflatex.
Hey there,
The second command does not work for me. I also tried putting :! mupdf %
You can use bash's & to make the command run in the backround, allowing you to work with the pdf still open. Cheers!
I personally use
map I :! pdflatex %
map S :! zathura %
By the way, maybe you'd know. Whenever I source .vimrc, with the command "source ~/.vimrc" - it says "syntax error near unexpected token
@@lithraal7057 thank you

VIM on windows is a nightmare, try dual booting a linux distribution, ubuntu is very user friendly.

Well you can always just shift to open office or libre office. They're really good right now, although you do sacrifice the ability to use vba macros
@@gregoririgakis7868
Can they open the Microsoft office files though?
Every time I press Shift + I. It says insert, and I can edit the text. Can anyone help me?
Did you ever figure it out? I'm having the same issue.
@@Sebi20070 Mapping different keys hasn't changed anything unfortunately
Are you and Luke Smith the same person !?
The second line could just be
map S mupdf -x11 %:r.pdf & disown
hope you changed your smoke alarm battery
Too much work! I changed whole residency 🙏😌
It doesnt work for me. Tells me that pdflatex is not a vim command.
did you put the !-sign infront of it? like :!pdflatex % ... works in my case, dont know if I installed anything additionally along the way though
I didnt realize thad i have to type \ before the command :D thank you for your reply @@simongratz9696
Simon beat me to it, though yeah, I'm using Bash(my shell, any shell works) and you use ! in vim. Cheers guys!
Wow, wallpaper and thumbnails like Luke Smith...
dislike for the oh so small font size - no offense
