[texhax] MiKTeX

[Mike Marchywka]

Do you have any scripts for generating latex to visualize riboswitches from a base sequence lol?

Obviously that may be a bit much but I was curious if there are decent script libraries for
making chem and bioinformatics things in latex that may not be well known. Even clever things with clustalw output
or alignment results.

Personally I have found that those simple scripts or vim macros can be a big help for
even many  things.

For long files this can be very difficult and if one adds the wrong
bits or if there are two problems (!) it may never reveal the issue.
So I usually make a copy of the problem file and start chopping away
obvious things and then less obvious things while testing at each
change.  If one can cut the file size in half each test cycle, then it
can go quite quickly.

Also, using my atchange tool to automate the latex/dvi compiling when
one writes the file out (so that one need not take one's hands off the
keyboard while testing) makes it go a lot faster:
