A flexible LaTeX filter
Project description
Tex2txt: a flexible LaTeX filter
This Python script or module extracts plain text from LaTeX documents. Due to the following characteristics, it may be integrated with a proofreading software:
- tracking of line numbers or character positions during text manipulations,
- simple inclusion of own LaTeX macros and environments with tailored treatment,
- careful conservation of text flows,
- detection of trailing interpunction in equations,
- proper handling of nestable LaTeX elements like {} braces.
A more complete description is available at the GitHub page. For instance, the LaTeX input
Only few people\footnote{We use
\textcolor{red}{redx colour.}}
is lazy.
will lead to the subsequent output from example application script shell.py. The script invokes LanguageTool as proofreading software, using a local installation or the Web server hosted by LanguageTool.
