Gummi is a LaTeX editor. It is a GTK+ application which runs on Linux systems.

Features

Gummi has many useful features for editing LaTeX source code, such as: ^[3]

• Live preview: The pdf is shown without the need to compile it manually
• Snippets: LaTeX snippets can be configured
• Graphical insertion of tables and images
• Templates and wizards for new document creation
