WebMath: IBM techexplorer

[June Lester]

Hi, folks.  IBM has recently released a new version of techexplorer
(announcement below) - the chief virtue of which is, from my standpoint, a
Mac version, making deployment of cross-platform projects possible.

Has anyone on the list had much experience with authoring for techexplorer?
I. like probably most people on this list, am looking for a useable way to
put math  text on the web.  My first impression is that techexplorer is not
very user friendly unless you just want to port TeX/LatTeX pages to the web
and enhance them.  I'd rather use it to put math into HTML pages, since I
want to put other non-TeX stuff into those pages as well and format/edit
them easily.  But I still need some *workable* way to create and insert the
math in largish quantities - recommendations for an authoring tool, anyone?
Preferably one that runs on a Mac?

June
