TeXMaker overview
Texmaker is a program that integrates many tools needed to develop documents with LaTeX in just one application.
Features:
- A unicode editor to write your LaTeX source files (syntax highlighting, undo-redo, search-replace, ...)
- The principal LaTex tags can be inserted directly with the "LaTeX", "Math" and "Greek" menus
- 370 mathematical symbols can be inserted in just one click
- Wizards to generate code ('Quick document', 'Quick letter', tabular, tabbing and array environments)
- LaTeX-related programs can be launched via the "Tools" menu
- The standard Bibtex entry types can be inserted in the ".bib" file with the "Bibliography" menu
- A "structure view" of the document for easier navigation of a document (by clicking on an item in the "Structure" frame, you can jump directly to the corresponding part of your document
- Extensive LaTeX documentation
- In the "Messages / Log File" frame, you can see information about processes and the logfile after a LaTeX compilation
- The "Next Latex Error" and "Previous Latex Error" commands let you reach the LaTeX errors detected by Kile in the log file
- By clicking on the number of a line in the log file, the cursor jumps to the corresponding line in the editor
What’s new in version 6.0.0
- Texmaker 6.x versions are designed for Qt6 (Qt5 support is deprecated and will no more be tested)
- reorganization of the source files
- switch to cmake for build system (a qmake .pro file is still available in the qmake_deprecated subdirectory but should no more work in the future)
- macosx packages are now built for arm64 architecture (Mx chipsets)
- a critical bug that happens on windows with large files has been fixed (limitation of calling a recursive function with msvc)
- a bug related to the bad detection of % !TEX root = has been fixed
- the obsolete "svn helper" has been replaced by "git helper"
- texmaker now tries to use the devicePixelRatio of the screen corresponding to the window of the pdf document instead of qApp->devicePixelRatio() (in case of use of a second screen for the pdf viewer)
- on gtk based desktop, texmaker now tries first to detect the gtk4 theme and see if the corresponding theme is available for Qt
- key pressed detection in presentation wiew for the pdf has been completed

Hi, I am new to TeXmaker and just installed this latest version but I am afraid I need some help. I could not quick build the .tex file and the error is: could not start the command : "/usr/texbin/pdflatex" -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode "trail2".tex For the previous version this problem could be solved by specifying the full path of the pdfLaTeX however it does not work for this version(4.3). Would any one give me some suggestions?
"/usr/texbin/pdflatex" -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode %.tex

I played with other apps. But this is it.
Great little app. Does what it states, and does it well.
Definitely my preferred one for writing scripts, smoothly, quickly and easily.
And yes, it is free and the developer is really prompt in case of need, and also this is not something you may find everyday.
Thank you, developer.

This is a great TeX editor. Easy to configure, easy to use. I've all the basic features for TeX users.
There is a fork from TeXmaker, it's TeXstudio. TeXstudio is based on TeXmaker with some advanced features but MacUpdate doesn't list TeXstudio. I just mention TeXstudio for someone who would like to try.
