SmileTeX v1.1 Description: Converts text into LaTeX code and calls additional tools (ImageMagick, pdfLaTeX, etc.) Platform: Windows Version: 1.1 License: Free, but no source code available SmileTeX is a small tool running under Windows which converts text files including some very simple commands to LaTeX files. Furthermore, it is also able to call other tools to automatically convert images into formats supported by LaTeX, to convert Excel tables to LaTeX tables, to create PDF output, to deal with LaTeX commands, etc. It should help the beginner to generate the first LaTeX document as it should help the advanced LaTeX user to quickly write LaTeX documents without having the need to convert every image and to type every figure environment by hand.
