[R] Latex editor recommendations

For LaTeX I use the winedt editor: http://www.winedt.com which is
extremely powerful and there exists an add-on for the use with R (but I
prefer using Tinn-R for R). Winedt is shareware, you have a trial period
of 30 days. It has an affordable price and discount for academics if I
remember correctly.

A very good freeware is TeXnicCenter: http://www.texniccenter.org/

There are many other editors being capable of LaTeX editing like Jedit
(which has a LaTeX plugin), xemacs plus auctex and so on but the two
mentioned are the LaTeX specialists and in my opinion easier to use.

(PS if you look for a nice reference-library for the use with LaTeX
Jabref is very good http://jabref.sourceforge.net/ free and works
excellent together with winedt (inserts citation into winedt by
mouse-click), has a connection to citeseer and medline for receiving
citations, can import endnote libraries and so on and so forth)
