Texmaker is a program that integrates many tools needed to develop documents with LaTeX in just one application.
Here are some key features of "TeXMaker":
an editor to write your LaTeX source files (syntax highlighting, undo-redo, search-replace, ...)
the principal LaTex tags can be inserted directly with the "LaTeX", "Math" and "Greek" menus
370 mathematical symbols can be inserted in just one click
wizards to generate code ('Quick document', 'Quick letter', tabular, tabbing and array environments)
LaTeX-related programs can be launched via the "Tools" menu
the standard Bibtex entry types can be inserted in the ".bib" file with the "Bibliography" menu
a "structure view" of the document for easier navigation of a document (by clicking on an item in the "Structure" frame, you can jump directly to the corresponding part of your document
extensive LaTeX documentation
in the "Messages / Log File" frame, you can see information about processes and the logfile after a LaTeX compilation
the "Next Latex Error" and "Previous Latex Error" commands let you reach the LaTeX errors detected by Kile in the log file
by clicking on the number of a line in the log file, the cursor jumps to the corresponding line in the editor.
What's New:
Texmaker is now a pure QT4.1 program (the Qt3 support library is no more required and the bugs with some Qt4.0.1 objects should have disappeared).
The editor should be more powerful with large files.
For each file, three bookmarks can be used to speed up navigation.
Requirements:
Trolltechs Qt C++ framework 3.3 or higher (with thread support; an installer is available on the same webpage).
