[Tex/LaTex] TexStudio and TexMaker crash due to SIGSEGV

mactexmakertexstudio

Suddenly my TexStudio installation keeps crashing 'due to SIGSEGV'. It happens as soon as I try and make a new document from a template, or on the second run and compile. Curiously, the first run and compile works, but the second hangs and eventually crashes 'due to SIGSEGV'.

I've tried the following:

Reinstall TexStudio 2.8.6
Uninstall and install TexStudio 2.8.4
Install TexMaker. TexMaker behaves in the same way.
Use another editor. TexShop works fine (I just don't like it and want TexStudio back!)
Restart computer
Reinstall full MacTex package

Any ideas?

Thanks

It appears to be an issue with 10.10.2. I downgraded to 10.10 and all issues have been resolved!

If you are using file names with blanks, the problem is with TeXstudio and TeXmaker, whose command line is something like (supposing your file is C cè.tex)

pdflatex.exe -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode C cè.tex

while the corresponding command line in WinEdt is

pdflatex.exe -synctex=-1 -interaction=errorstopmode "C cè.tex"

so you would have to change TeXstudio command line (in Options -> Configure -> commands) to

pdflatex.exe -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode "%.tex"

You can run custom commands in Texmaker (User -> User Commands) as well as TeXstudio (Configure -> Build -> User Commands). With that it should be possible to call Git command line tools from within the editor. Moreover in TeXstudio, you can combine this with scripting and triggers, which allows you to automatically trigger these actions e.g. on file save.

If you tell me which git commands you need, I could provide example code.

Edit:

Below is an example for TeXstudio, in which the commands are called via scripting. Create the scripts at User Macros -> Edit Macros.... Since I'm not into git, I don't know if the actual git calls are correct, however it should illustrate the idea.

Pull:

Git pull command

A simple plain call to an external program. On first execution of the script TXS will ask you if you trust the script to execute external programs.

Push:

Git push command

This a bit more fancy. First, the script asks the user for a commit comment. Second, the trigger ?save-file means that the script is called everytime you save a file.

Of course, you can further extend the scripts according to your needs.
