hi
i dont know what is a "qt port" but i guess that a very new version is
been worked about
in my opinion, changing the name can be a good idea, and making a sort
of marketing operation also
- new name, with not technical relation with the software, but a
metaphoric relation : something poetic (i like Qipu, that can be
prononced "kipou" in french and does not have any bad connotation)
- new icon, something colored, that you dont forget since youve seen it
- good arguments, good sentences, about the ergonomy and efficienty of
the programm
- "advert" operation : just informing the people, where they are
the remarks
- this may be done by a pro
- this necessitates that texmacs really becomes a large-public programm
this last point means for me
- easy to install: download the installer, double click on it, and wait
- general keyboard shortcuts, similar to all the other programms
(ctrlC to copy etc)
- keyboard totally customisable as in mathtype (if i want ctrl alt F
for fraction i can configure it)
- something more simple to insert images
but, texmacs has a lot much to offer, than this common (but necessary)
items
possibility to include maxima (or other..) sessions, and to edit them
each time we open the document
export pdf easy (shortcut svp !!)
totally latex compatible
totally wyswyg
maybe i am a littel wrong on these last two points, but, thought, one
can say that; that can convince a lot
other argumetns: if anyone finds a easy way to make an association
between "professor" and texmacs, i think that a lot of secondary
degree french teachers can, if the marketing is well done, switch to
texmacs.
