I've been wanting to look at TeXmacs for a while now. It seems to have similar typesetting abilities as TeX, but the ability to edit the document live and connect with a running program. I haven't had the time to look into it, though, so it may not be what you want.
- symmetricsaurus 12y agoTexmacs is quite nice actually. If you know emacs shortcuts and are willing to learn a few new Texmacs specific ones it is the fastest way I know to write mixed text and maths. When I tried last time a few years ago it was not as complete as LaTeX is, atleast for me, who is much more proficient in LaTex.
- edwintorok 12y agoTeXworks is a simple GUI for editing *TeX, and watching the output at the same time: https://www.tug.org/texworks/ https://www.tug.org/texworks/ You can also click somewhere in the PDF view and 'jump to source'. Used it a few times when polishing/debugging a LaTeX document, I generally don't use it for writing though. (I prefer to do all my writing in Vim).
- noahl 12y agoI've seen TeXworks, but it's different than TeXmacs, which is real WYSIWYG editing with a TeX-like layout engine. TeXworks is still very cool, though.
- jimhefferon 12y ago> real WYSIWYG editing That's an argument against using it, it seems to me. Having the words jump around as you type them is maddening.
