[OS X TeX] Replace LaTeX????

[Alain Schremmer]

(1) Even when I "just" write, I have to read what I have just written. 
In fact, I spend a lot of time reading, trying to imagine how the reader 
will see it—even elementary exposition tends to be opaque to 
un-mathematical readers—and thus rewriting. Which is why I keep Typesetting.

(2) If TeXShop were able to fold chapters, sections and footnotes, this 
would be bliss. Would that be "semantic" folding? The way I 
(mis?)understand it, these are already delimited in the source.
