#WordCloud

From https://www.wordclouds.com/

I then took the generated PNG and used https://www.online-convert.com/ to convert it to TIFF

#AcademicChatter #AcademicTools #AmWriting #AcWri

Another day, another #wordcloud.

Finishing up the TIFF images for the article; had to re-generate the images. Happy results!

TOOL REVIEW: https://www.wordclouds.com/

Easy to use; professional-looking color templates; font control (which matters!); has multiple submission options (extract from text is my favorite but I've also uploaded CSV; can download both images and weighted wordlist); high-quality results

#AcademicChatter #AcademicTools #AmWriting #AcWri

Uh, @zotero joined Mastodon. Hopefully many #AcademicTools follow along soon.

I have been thinking of using a version control system to keep track of my tex files. I want to escape the curse that is "project_final_v2_FINAL (copy).tex"

I found this [1] tutorial to be useful.

But I use #VSCode / #VSCodium as my text editor, so I'm using a couple of extensions to implement #LaTeX and #git viz.,

- LaTeX Workshop
- GitLens
- Git Graph

It's pretty fun, tbh.
