Hi all!

I am pleased to announce the release of the texmacs-fedit (aka File
Editor) plug-in for Texmacs, dedicated to literate programming, with an
experimental plug-in for ATS.

If you are wondering what it is about, please check these samples:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/texmacs-fedit/files/examples/euler1.pdf/download
http://sourceforge.net/projects/texmacs-fedit/files/examples/helloworldC.pdf/download

To use it, you must first install or download Texmacs.
http://www.texmacs.org/tmweb/download/download.en.html

The source of texmacs-fedit itself can be downloaded from:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/texmacs-fedit/files/

Then, please untar the source in $HOME/.Texmacs/plugins/ and
$make all

The dream is to get a productive development environment for the
advanced languages of the 21 century, such ATS, that are currently
hindered by the mono-dimensional programming ubiquitous today.

Some features that should be implemented to reach this objective are:
- conversion from the powerful mathematical typesetting of Texmacs into
the concrete syntax of the compiler.
- syntax highlighting.
- automatic completion (that may be done by leverage of existing REPL).
- nice style-sheets.
- importer from source code.
- other ideas are welcome, especially accompanied of patches :)
- you are also welcome to propose plug-ins for your favorite language.

There is still work to be done, some in the frame of Texmacs itself,
which is a great piece of software to hack on.

Spread the word! Everybody is welcome to join the fun!
Please send patches or request commit rights on:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/texmacs-fedit/

Sylvain
