Why change the name ? It's one of the only soft we get at first research : put texmacs in google and you get it !
For example : maxima sage axiom are damned name :)
In google you never get the right soft with those names !
How stressing it can be for example to look for RLC maxima axiom .... They bring you anything but right search !
tex is fine in texmacs so we know what is about !
I am not an expert in texmacs that why I like it, to write maths physics it comes near "naturally" and that 's what i expect from a wisiwig other wise I would choose another none wisiwig latex things !
I am translating and making some articles with texmacs (translation too) though I believe most people using texmacs speak english ?
well thanks again to all those who are making such an excellent soft :)
I use it on linux.
regards
Henri

Supplemental: If you really want to change texmacs' name (to get rid of the tex
connotation), I vote for TeXmacs -> TechMax.

* whoever is interested in looking at the names that have been
proposed already please make yourself a user in http://tiddlyspace.com
and send to me privately the id so that I can authorize you to see the
private pages in http://tamiz.tiddlyspace.com. You can suggest new
names; in that case using the letters 't' and 'm' is of interest to
ease the transition process.
