Hello,

I think the following suggestions could make TeXmacs a lot more popular:

* promote TeXmacs as a note taking tool that is useful even if you don't need to generate high quality PDFs and/or print anything out

* add a mode where word wrapping occurs at the window edge; this allows you to more easily use a narrow TeXmacs window to take notes while using another app to its side

* include a compact layout for taking notes that minimizes white space

* add a dark mode

* make it more difficult to accidentally nest environments in unexpected and hard to correct ways

* make sure copy/paste from TeXmacs to other apps just works and gives reasonable results

What do you think?

Amir

P.S. A more popular TeXmacs could mean a more stable app due to the greater number of bug reports and developers interested in fixing them.
