Sorry, haven't heard of this one. I am interested in knowing more. Have
you looked at The Publisher? It uses TeX and LaTeX as back ends and has
a preview facility but is not strictly speaking WYSIWYG. It does have a
very nice equation editor, and has been ranked as the best desktop
publishing program for mathematics in some reviews a couple of years ago.
I don't know where it stands in comparison to others now. You get it from
ArborText.
