> It looks such that you edit your document immediately in DVI Viewer.
>
> 2) It is True LaTeX Editor.
> It edits LaTeX source text without any import/export procedure.
> It means that you can load and edit any LaTeX 2e document.
>
> BaKoMa TeX Word is built on top of BaKoMa TeX graphic engine and
> consequently it inherits all features of BaKoMa TeX related
> with import graphics, font support, and document export.
>
> It supports processors:
> (1) Standard TeX and (2) e-TeX.
> Other processors such as Omega may be added in future.
