TeXmacs is not a TeX-editor, it is an independent program. The word "TeX" is in the name because one of the ambitions of the program is to inherit the typographic excellence of TeX (see the "parent article"). On this topic, the author of TeXmacs claims he has surpassed it.
- taeric 5y agoIt is rather amusing how this product is neither TeX, nor emacs. Pretty sure the vast majority of folks assume it is related to at least one, if not both.
- GiovanniP 5y agoAccording to Joris van der Hoeven "... it has become clear over time that this choice of name was one of the biggest mistakes of the project. Indeed, the name incorrectly suggests that TeXmacs is some kind of interface to (La)TeX."
