1. Is there a setting such that starting a new line in the editor makes a new line in the compiler without the new line symbol? ex:

asdfasd
asdfasdfa

If I type this in the editor, it shows up as one line separated by a space in the compiled version. Is it possible to type what I did above and have it show the two words on two different lines by adding something to the preamble or something and not using the new line character?

2. Is there a Latex editor that builds what you're typing as you write, like in real time without pressing the build file button.

For the second, look up "LyX"

On the first: There shouldn't be, because it defeats the principles of the system. The same code should produce the same output in any instance of $\LaTeX$ , and those .tex files in the editor are just plain text.

Incidentally, fully skipping a line in the code does get you to a new line in the output, and is probably what you should use for text paragraph breaks.
