DESCRIPTION

14       TeXworks is an environment for authoring TeX (LaTeX, ConTeXt, etc) doc‐
15       uments, with a Unicode-based, TeX-aware editor, integrated PDF  viewer,
16       and  a  clean,  simple interface accessible to casual and non-technical
17       users.
18
19       It is inspired by Dick Koch's award-winning TeXShop program for Mac  OS
20       X, which has made quality typesetting through TeX accessible to a wider
21       community of users, without a technical or intimidating face. The  goal
22       of  TeXworks is to deliver a similarly integrated, easy-to-use environ‐
23       ment for users on other platforms, especially GNU/Linux and Windows.
