How to open a tex file in Texmaker from terminal in MacOS?












1















In Ubuntu I could simply run from the terminal:



texmaker file.tex


which opened my tex file in Texmaker. In MacOS, the texmaker command is not found, even though I have Texmaker installed.



How can I achieve this in MacOS? Is there an equivalent command?

          If you mean this then you can install it with homebrew using this command:



          brew cask install texmaker

            Once Texmaker is installed, you can add:



            alias texmaker="open -a texmaker"


            to your .profile. From now on, it should be possible to simply run from the command line:



            texmaker file.tex


            at the location where the file.tex is.

                      Once Texmaker is installed, you can add:



                      alias texmaker="open -a texmaker"


                      to your .profile. From now on, it should be possible to simply run from the command line:



                      texmaker file.tex
