Are you saying that a TeX widget could be developed from the current TeX source code? As I understand it, this would not be too easy, but not _that_ hard either, as long one does not try to implement it as an editable widget. I assume that a in-memory format a bit more structurized than dvi could be used, in much the same way as the html widget in the Mosaic distribution does make use of a formatted element list. It would be much harder to have an editable TeX source, much harder than a structured text source such the one I'm working on. If anyone could forward me to a introduction/reference document available online I would appreciate it very much. -- Torgeir @ http://www.ii.uib.no/~torgeir/
