Enhancements:

1.  e-TeX is the default engine (when installed)
   • e-TeX engine is now included into QuickSetup. e-TeX is installed by default but may be avoied.
   • TeXWord uses e-LaTeX by defualt when it is installed.
   • New 'Prefer e-TeX' option in Centaur:/Options/TeX Running Parameters/General dialog. It is enabled by default. [09/03/27]
2. $TEXMFUSER - new Standart TDS directory tree.
   • New element ($TEXMFUSER) is added into list of directory trees, as following: '$BKMDIR,$TEXMFUSER,$TEXMFLOCAL,$TEXMFMAIN'.
   • This directory is placed automatically as '$APPDATA/BaKoMa TeX', which may be found as 'C:UsersUser NameAppDataRoamingBaKoMa TeX' (Windows 7/VISTA) or 'C:Document and SettingsUser NameApplication DataBaKoMa TeX' (Windows XP/2000).
   • NOTE: User may add and remove own directories into any position of the list, but all standard directories ($BKMDIR, $TEXMFUSER, $TEXMFLOCAL, $TEXMFMAIN) are not removable from the list.
   • Stuffs defined by user now will be installed into $TEXMFUSER directory insetad of $TEXMFLOCAL. Example of such stuffs are:
   • User Macros in TeXWord and Centaur are saved into '$TEXMFUSER/Macros' directory. However, macros saved earlier into '$TEXMFLOCAL/Macros' are still accessible.
   • Templates are saved ('File/Save As Template ...') into '$TEXMFUSER/Template/Dir/User' directory. However, earlier saved templates are still accessible.
   • Fonts installed via 'Options/Common Settings/Install Fonts' dialog may be installed into $TEXMFUSER or $TEXMFLOCAL depend on new option 'Install fonts for all users'.
   • NOTE: Technically, directory tree for installing fonts is selected by $TEXMFCUSTOM variable, which may be defined manually.
   • Spell dictionaries installed via 'Options/Speller Configuration/Common Dictionaries' dialog may be installed into $TEXMFUSER or $TEXMFLOCAL depend on new option 'Install dictionaries for all users'.
   • NOTE: The options 'Install fonts for All Users' and 'Install dictionaries for All Users' are locked when $TEXMFLOCAL directory isn't writeable. $TEXMFUSER directory is assumed always writeable.
3. GUI Improvements
   • Alarm (red blinking) errors appeared at running BibTeX and MakeIndex in TeXWord.
   • 'Highlight hyper anchors by following colors' option from 'Options/Document Properties/Hyperlinks' dialog now control only decoration of hyperlinks by colors but do not disable hyperlinks.
   • Added a small bit of white space (half of cell) between the left margin and the text in source windows of TeXWord and Centaur to improve readability [09/04/14].
   • TeXWord now can use CLS files located together with document.[09/03/19 - 8.47]
   • Common Settings/Find Files/Path - AUTOHSCROLL was added. [09/03/27 - 8.47]
4. Compatibility and Updated packages
   • HyperRef is updated (it includes fixing driver). NOTE: borders are disabled by colorlinks. So, HyperRef clears borders at egin{documents} color links enabled. However, using hypersetup{pdfborder=0 0 1} after egin{document} will force borders even with colorlinks.
   • Beamer compatiblity -- making hyperlinks for toolbar.
   • Fixed bug of handling TTF fonts embedded into PDF under by MSO PowerPoint 2007
   • Improved importing PDF generated by Quartz under MAC OS X 10.5.6 (PDF2EPS: support of CMAP format 6 in Type42 fonts) [09/04/24 - Zhu]
   • Fixed PDF -> PS with text in exotic rendering modes. (Ponitz's sample - undefined xshow).[09/03/20 - 8.47]

Requirements:

• Reprocess a page between two sequential keys pressed by your fingers on keyboard. So, estimation of required CPU may be adjusted for speed with which you type on keyboard.
• At least 1 GHz CPU is required to work with BaKoMa TeX Word.
• On such computers you can find that response at editing first page is slightly slow, but on following pages it will good enough. If you have found response isn't good enough you can disable font anti-aliasing. It will dramatically speedup displaying text.
• At least 2 GHz CPU is recommended to work with BaKoMa TeX Word.
