Do you know the (apparently dead) project named e:doc? You can find it
here:

It's a kind of word processor that can produce final documents to
various formats using backends, and one of the backends is for LaTeX.
It's written in Perl, but with Perl::Tk as a tool-kit, so it is quite
close to Tkinter. There may be some ideas to steal from it.
Thanks for this. I've not seen it before
There are quite a few GUI semi-wysiwyg front ends to (La)TeX.
Interesting that there are so many, and that besides LyX few
seem to have succeeded. Guess it's an important problem that
is also difficult.
My approach is a rather different - it is to exploit running
TeX as a daemon
http://www.pytex.org/texd
This allows for Instant Preview. My application is simply
a means of show-casing this capability. And making it
useful in simple contexts.
So what I'm really wanting to do is provide a component for
projects such as e:doc.
Any, this might be a bit off-topic.
And thanks again for the link.
