ranger is a great terminal-based file manager. For a long time, I used pdftoppm for image-based PDF previews which is the recommended approach. However, I found it was difficult to install pdftoppm everywhere (particularly, macos) and finally turned to MuPDF, which was much easier to get.

In order to use MuPDF, I changed the PDF case within the handle_image() function inside scope.sh to the following:

application/pdf)
    mutool draw -F png -o "${IMAGE_CACHE_PATH}" "${FILE_PATH}" 1 \
 &amp;&amp; exit 6 || exit 1;;

Installation

Easiest, if you have pip:

$ pip install papis

Adding Documents

Most of the time I add documents via their DOI. For example, I'll be on IEEExplore or ResearchGate and see a paper that I either want to read or know for sure I'll want to cite. So I simply copy the DOI and run

Problem: the default typst references for math.equation labels appears as "Equation 1". One may provide a supplement argument when referencing as in: <someEquation>[Eq.] which renders "Eq. 1" in the text. However, this is insufficient for meeting the IEEE specification for equation references which should be rendered "(1)".

Solution: I modified the thmref function provided by typst-theorems (see here) in order to provide the level of customization necessary.
