[OS X TeX] [OT] Mactex for Windows?

[Alan Litchfield]

Have you directed your query at the texhax mailing list (http://tug.org/pipermail/texhax/)? 
  You may find more people with frequent and direct experience use of  
various editors.

Alternatively, comp.tex.tex has discussions about much to do with tex  
and latex.

Cheers
Alan
