Kile ⇒ Management of a Project

[swagatopablo]

What is a project and how to manage a project in Kile? If my objective is to modularly divide my big .tex code into several latex file, then I can use the

Code: Select all

\include{filename.tex}

or

Code: Select all

\input{filename.tex}

for this purpose. Does opening a new project give any important advantage over them? I am relatively novice in latex and will be grateful if you reply keeping that in mind.

I'm not an expert in Kile, so I can only guess (aided by this) because eclipse has this similar idea of a project. In fact, that's the only choice in eclipse even if you're writing 1 word (which is why stopped using it!).

Anyway, you still have to use \include or \input (because these are LaTeX dependent commands, unrelated to the editor), however, having all the files in a 'Kile' project will give you the advantages listed in the above link. In short; Kile will know that all these files are interconnected which makes things simpler.
