This link

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zooming_User_Interface

tells something about a zooming user interface.

Curiously, almost no example at the moment deals with text editors, although
that would be the more useful application.

Probably the point is that text editors are quite complex programs and there
is
some inertia in working out really innovative interfaces for them.

On the other hand, texmacs has a long standing need for a more polished user
interface, it would be nice to have a true innovation here, instead of just
rewriting the interface in a more gnome-compliant fashion (well, that would be
also good of course).
