CTAN submission -- new version of TeXmacs
by Reinhard Zierke 17 Dec '01

17 Dec '01

----- Forwarded message from Joris van der Hoeven ----- I just uploaded the new GNU TeXmacs distribution in ftp.dante.de/incoming/TeXmacs The new distribution contains the files message TeXmacs-0.3.5.10-1.i386.rpm TeXmacs-0.3.5.10-1.src.rpm TeXmacs-0.3.5.10-src.tar.gz TeXmacs-0.3.5.10-static-gnu-linux.tar.gz The files should be put into the directory systems/unix/TeXmacs All existing files in this directory become obsolete. The file 'message' should be renamed to '.message'. ----- End forwarded message ----- >From the .message file: 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. Useful links: * http://www.texmacs.org/Download/Install.html: downloading + installation instructions * http://www.texmacs.org/Download/Compile.html: downloading source code + compilation instructions * The TeXmacs home page http://www.texmacs.org * The GNU home page http://www.gnu.org ---------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload. I installed the new version as suggested in CTAN:/tex-archive/systems/unix/TeXmacs/ replacing the old one. Reinhard Zierke for the CTAN team
