Hello,

I was wondering if it would make sense for the TeXmacs team to create a
standalone viewer for .tm files.

Unlike PDFs, this would at the very least allow you to have word wrapping
occur at the window edge and there would be no need for page breaking.

Although exporting to HTML does allow this kind of word wrapping, the
document visual quality is not as good as what would be possible with a
TeXmacs viewer.

And of course, a TeXmacs viewer could go much further than PDFs while
protecting document integrity (e.g., you might be able to restyle the
document, mark it up, etc. without messing up the original content.).

What do you think?

Amir
