Et tu, Taco?

Et tu, Taco?

[Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي حامد]

Dear Knights of the ConTeXt Table,

I am sad to report that our beloved Taco has gone over to the dark side:

http://tacosw.com/latexian/

Is there a Merlin among us to bring back our holy grail? Wolfgang? Luigi?

:D

Best wishes
Idris

I count at least two Dark Sides, here; should we rescue the Taco from
LaTeX first, or from Macintosh?

Then that should happen before he gets locked up in that app store 
(which makes me wonder if tex related stuff would be is rated 16+).

Poor Taco. Other than the "tabs" he has managed to duplicate the 
features Emacs has had for some time now albeit at the expense of 
installing a couple of optional packages. Then there's Lyx, Texworks...

Perhaps we need our own deprogrammers to help rescue our community 
members from the Cult of Mac. :)

Yup. Type in your name on the command line and try to guess what it will 
do. :)
