+ <b><BIG>Description</BIG></b>&nbsp;&nbsp; <span class="ite">iTe</span> is an
+ easy to use, interactive authoring tool for
+ L<SUP><SMALL>A</SMALL></SUP>T<SMALL>E</SMALL>X and
+ T<SMALL>E</SMALL>X documents. With <span class=ite>iTe</span>, it is
+ possible to select arbitrary display fragments such as figures,
+ equations, labels, captions, etc. These fragments can then be
+ freely moved, rotated and scaled. Existing tools are either
+ awkward to use (for example cryptic
+ L<SUP><SMALL>A</SMALL></SUP>T<SMALL>E</SMALL>X extensions), or
+ they produce results of poor quality (font of captions does not
+ match L<SUP><SMALL>A</SMALL></SUP>T<SMALL>E</SMALL>X font, for
+ example). To the user, <span class=ite>iTe</span> is an easy to use
+ and effective tool which is a lot of fun.
+
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <img src="images/sc.gif" style="float:right">
+ <b><BIG>Example</BIG></b>&nbsp;&nbsp; Using <span class=ite>iTe</span>, it
+ took my then five year old daughter only a few minutes to typeset
+ the simple example to the right.
+
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <b><BIG>How does it work</BIG></b>&nbsp;&nbsp; The user actions
+ (translation, scaling and rotation) are simultaneously recorded
+ in the L<SUP><SMALL>A</SMALL></SUP>T<SMALL>E</SMALL>X source
+ file <strong>and</strong> displayed on the screen by an
+ asynchronous <EM>ghostscript</EM> process. What you see on the
+ screen is exactly what you get if the source is recompiled and
+ printed.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <b><BIG>How to use it</BIG></b>&nbsp;&nbsp; Because
+ <span class=ite>iTe</span> is written in <EM>Emacs-lisp</EM>, it
+ integrates nicely in the editing process. Just call it during a
+ normal (X)Emacs session as many times as you want. Note however,
+ that <span class=ite>iTe</span> is not a WYSIWYG front end for
+ L<SUP><SMALL>A</SMALL></SUP>T<SMALL>E</SMALL>X, and
+ <span class=ite>iTe</span> does not change the way you use
+ L<SUP><SMALL>A</SMALL></SUP>T<SMALL>E</SMALL>X to typeset 95% of
+ your text. But it will help you to manage the remaining 5% fast
+ with a high quality result.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <b><BIG>Platform</BIG></b>&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class=ite>iTe</span> should run on
+ every <EM>Unix</EM> and <EM>MS Windows</EM> platform meeting the
+ <a href="distribution.html#requirements">requirements</a>.
