TeXwiz is a document creation wizard for LaTeX documents that supports many of the extremely useful features provided by KOMA script.
While most LaTeX editors have similar built-in wizards, they usually only provide very basic functionality and prepare documents most authors would be able to create by heart.
The reason for this is probably that the programmer doesn't want to limit the writers to a specific layout - which is of course a possible approach. However, when writing LaTeX documents there are often several ways of doing things, but only one correct way.
Therefore TeXwiz allows the user to set most of the options that have to be set in a majority of all documents and produces LaTeX code which is in compliance with two important publications about DOs and DON'Ts: LaTeX S?ndenregister (in German) and the KOMA script documentation scrguien / scrguide (included in most LaTeX distribution).
