integrated sketching facility based on SVG. (In particular, I'd suggest folks working on KFormula to abandon their efforts and see if they can integrate TeXmacs as KPart into KOffice !!!)Ĭongrats to Slashdot for recognizing the hardwork of the TeXmacs team to produce the 1.0 release.įuture additions to TeXmacs that I hope really come to pass (and to which I might even lend my own efforts time permitting) include:ġ. TeXmacs on the other hand is a real innovation for technical word processing, and I think deserves at least as much attention from the development and user community as the other more office-oriented suites.

I think that TeXmacs provides a nice counterpoint to development efforts like OpenOffice and KWord, which appear to want to clone Microsoft Word as closely as possible. DVI output in real time, but in a separate window which is not editable (you always have to return to the TeX source code to make changes.) And Textures is not available for Linux :) TeXmacs even surpasses commerical offerings like BlueSky's Textures, which renders the. Traditional TeX never provided an easy interface for users to switch fonts, although LaTeX eventually improved the situation considerably. TeXmacs improves on traditional TeX typesetting not just in providing a real-time rendering engine but also in some more subtle ways, like how it handles various typesetting issues (including font-switching) semantically. *Both* screen and paper output from TeXmacs is based on the highly-respected Metafont font rasterization engine. Most importantly, it is truly What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get, where as Lyx is only What-You-See-Is-What-You-Mean.
