There is a wysiwig TeX available on the Mac.  I can't remember the name,
we don't use mac's around here.

Check out VorTeX from BSD (Visually Oriented TeX).  The package contains
IncTeX, an incremental TeX compiler.  Unfortunately, it runs on X10,
with X11 in the works (but don't hold your breath).  You can work back
and forth on the TeX source and on the visual representation.
Also included is makeindex, an indexing facility for Latex.

Pehong Chen is the chief architect of IncTeX.  His
PhD's dissertation is ``A Multiple-Representation Paradigm
for Document Development''.  Report No. UCB/CSD 88/436  180 pages.

We bought the package but we did not install it yet.  I don't know how
it rates.  Besides, we don't have X10.
