* Here is a [[http://www.oneminutepython.com/|nice short tutorial]] on how to combine matplotlib plots within a gui application based on wxWidgets and wxPython.
====== LaTeX ======
Lots of tutorials and quick starts out there:
* [[http://tobi.oetiker.ch/lshort/lshort.pdf|The Not So Short Introduction to LATEX 2ε or LATEX 2ε in 157 minutes]] by Tobias Oetiker, Hubert Partl, Irene Hyna and Elisabeth Schlegl, with an excellent index useful for looking up commands

* [[http://www.andy-roberts.net/writing/latex|Getting to Grips with LaTeX]] by Andrew Roberts
===== Tools for LaTex =====
There are specific editors and GUI programs to help you with LaTex (e.g. texmaker, lyx, and kile for linux, which are installed on CS machines, and miktex for windows). Personally, I either do things at the commandline and use emacs/aquamacs for editing or use one of two very good online systems: ([[https://www.overleaf.com/ | Overleaf]] or [[https://www.sharelatex.com/ | ShareLatex]]).
===== Latex on Windows and Macs =====
* [[http://www.latex-project.org/ftp.html|Obtaining LaTeX]], includes links to [[http://www.tug.org/protext/|ProTeXT]] for Windows, and [[http://www.tug.org/mactex/|MacTeX]] for Macs.
===== Remote Access to CS Department Machines =====
See the [[https://www.cs.colostate.edu/wiki/Remote_Access|Remote Access]] page department wiki.
