Sobre este aplicativo

Hand TeX, from VoxelCubes, addresses one specific lookup problem: finding the LaTeX command for a symbol you can picture but cannot name. The user draws the symbol by hand inside the application, and the program answers with the corresponding LaTeX markup, so the shape of the glyph becomes the search query instead of a keyword or a memorised macro name.

This suits people writing mathematical, scientific, or other technical documents who recognise a glyph — an operator, arrow, relation, or letterform — without knowing its command. It is a reference aid rather than a document tool: it hands back markup to paste into a manuscript, and works alongside a TeX distribution and editor rather than replacing either.

The application is listed for Linux only, so it is not an option on other desktop systems as packaged. It is released under GPL-3.0-or-later, which keeps the source open to inspection and modification and requires derivative distributions to use the same licence.
