Welcome to GNU TeXmacs
----------------------------------------------------------------
GNU TeXmacs is a free scientific text editor, which was both inspired
by TeX and GNU Emacs. The editor allows you to write structured documents
via a wysiwyg (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) and user friendly interface.
New styles may be created by the user. The program implements high-quality
typesetting algorithms and TeX fonts, which help you to produce
professionally looking documents.
The high typesetting quality still goes through for automatically
generated formulas, which makes TeXmacs suitable as an interface
for computer algebra systems. TeXmacs also supports the Guile/Scheme
extension language, so that you may customize the interface and
write your own extensions to the editor.
TeXmacs currently runs on PC's and PPC's under Gnu/linux (a >200MHz
processor and >32Mb of memory are recommended) and on sun computers.
Converters exist for TeX/LaTeX and they are under development for
Html/Mathml/Xml. In the future, TeXmacs is planned to evoluate towards
a complete scientific office suite, with spreadsheet capacities,
a technical drawing editor and a presentation mode.

TeXmacs – Structured text editor for TeX
TeXmacs is a “structured text editor” with special
support for mathematical expressions. The typesetting quality of
the produced documents is intended to be as high as possible,
i.e., comparable to the quality of documents produced with TeX;
The user interface aims to be as natural and powerful as possible.
In particular, the text you see on the screen corresponds exactly
to what you get after printing. TeXmacs comes with a typed lisp
extension language. Like emacs, this allows you for instance to
redefine keyboard and menu actions. TeXmacs can also be used as
an interface for computer algebra systems. In particular,
automatically generated mathematical formulas are typeset in a
satisfactory way. It is possible to generate LaTeX and PostScript
output from TeXmacs. After compilation, the LaTeX output will
resemble the PostScript output, although we guarantee no complete
compatibility between TeXmacs and TeX. It is also possible to
import “well written” LaTeX documents. The
present release includes an interface with ghostscript, which
enables you to include PostScript (and some other formats) of
images.
