Very cool to see an unmaintained GTK3 app ported to GTK4 and the latest widgets, kudos to @FineFindus πŸ™Œ

github.com/FineFindus/TeX-Matc

GTK4 port of TeX Match, an app to find latex symbols by drawing. It's a small window with a split view layout, the left side is a white canvas where you can draw a character, the right side has a list of Latex symbols that are similar to the drawing.

@tbernard @FineFindus That's awesome news, I've actually been writing a lot of LaTeX since I started univerity, but I've always relied on an online tool because the old app was so outdated.

FineFindus

@tbernard Thanks for the great design!
I think it needs a new name (and possibly a new icon) to not confuse it with the original app, and it should be good for a first release.
Happy to take suggestions :)

@FineFindus @tbernard Lambda would be a cool nam, although I'm willing to bet there's some project/app that already uses it.

FineFindus

@gregorni @tbernard Considering how ubiquitous lambda is in (functional) programming, most likely.
Also, a bit funny, but I'm actually using lambda in the readme screenshots.

@FineFindus Some initial ideas:

symbology
semiotic
letterboard
cuneiform
decipher
pictogram
hieroglyphic
logograph
signboard

FineFindus

@tbernard Ooh, I really like hieroglyphic, it also highlights how hard some of the symbols are to find :)
Looks like there isn't any app named that yet, so I think I'm going to use it. Thanks!
