resulting ports for <name|Windows> and <name|MacOS>.
|

|

<item>Development of a markup-based graphical user interface for popup

version 1.1.
|

<item>Development of user-friendly tools for documentation and

translations, which can be used in a collaborative version over the web.

<item>Microtypography and support for more mathematical fonts.

<item>Completion of a <TeXmacs> user manual and make it available in book

form.
|

|

<item>High quality converters to and from <LaTeX>.
|

</itemize>
|
||||
|
||||
The next stable version 1.1 should also contain a more robust version of
|
||||
the graphical drawing tool, which is developed by Henri Lesourd. Finally,
|
||||
we plan to create an association for the proposition of free scientific
|
||||
software. One of the objectives of this association is to create a
|
||||
simplified system for making donations to <TeXmacs> and sell our software
|

and documentation.
|
||||
At a certain point, we also plan to create an association for the
|
||||
proposition of free scientific software. One of the objectives of this
|
||||
association is to create a simplified system for making donations to
|
||||
<TeXmacs> and sell our software and documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
Within a slightly longer time period of about one or two years, we have
|
||||
also started to reorganize <TeXmacs> so as to make it a stable development
|
||||
platform for developments. The aim is to reach as quickly as possible a
|
||||
point where the different parts of <TeXmacs> are well documented and
|
||||
modularized, so that they can easily be further developed in parallel by
|
||||
different people. Most of these deeper developments will reach their
|
||||
maturity only in the after-next stable version<nbsp>1.2, and comprise the
|
||||
following items:
|
||||
|
||||
<\itemize>
|
||||
<item>Improve the quality of the <TeXmacs> makefiles so as to make them
|
||||
completely compatible with <verbatim|automake> and <verbatim|autoconf>.
|
||||
|
||||
<item>Replace the current widget system by a markup-based system, with
|
||||
the possibility to use widgets (from Gtk, Qt, Aqua, etc.) from standard
|
||||
GUI's instead of the <TeXmacs>-provided style files.
|
||||
|
||||
<item>Separate the style rewriting engine from the typesetter and make
|
||||
both completely lazy.
|
||||
|
||||
<item>Increase the robustness and use of DRDs (Data Relation
|
||||
Definitions), which contain meta-information about <TeXmacs> or
|
||||
user-provided DTDs.
|
||||
|
||||
<item>Migrate as much as possible of the high-level interface from C++ to
|
||||
<name|Scheme>.
|
||||
|
||||
<item>Increase the robustness of <TeXmacs> and its <name|Scheme> APIs by
|
||||
providing detailed exception semantics and tools for debugging.
|
||||
|
||||
<item>Provide extended documentation for developers and intelligent
|
||||
interactive ways to use this documentation.
