An AppImage for TeXmacs

The recommended generic way to install TeXmacs on GNU/Linux distributions with no dedicated TeXmacs packages is to use an AppImage. For this, you should first download the TeXmacs 2.1.5 (Qt6) AppImage for 64 bit GNU/Linux distributions.

After downloading, simply move the AppImage to your desktop or any other convenient location and double click on it to launch TeXmacs.

On some older versions of GNU/Linux, you may need to give your system the permissions to execute the AppImage. In that case, open a terminal and type the following command in the directory that contains the AppImage:

chmod a+x TeXmacs-2.1.5.x86_64.AppImage

After that, double clicking on AppImage should launch TeXmacs.

Older AppImage versions are available here.

Packages for specific GNU/Linux distributions

Depending on your GNU/Linux distribution, you may choose between the following installation methods:

• For Debian, Ubuntu and Raspbian (or any Ubuntu-based distributions, such as Linux Mint), we recommend installing TeXmacs from our official APT repository. This ensures TeXmacs updates automatically alongside your system.

• We provide ready-to-install packages for CentOS, Debian, Fedora, Scientific Linux, Open Suse, Ubuntu, Raspbian.

• Some distributions (such as Gentoo) actively support TeXmacs, in which case you may directly install TeXmacs using the standard tools of your system.
