But you _already_ have another program installed by default: the
lilypad editor. What I suggest is to replace this by a proper windows
mini-shell with the essential buttons clearly visible. Open Document.
Edit Document. Compile Document. All with Auto PDF view, a selectable
external viewer in the Edit-Preferences menu. And (very important!)
message output console. Not a paragraph in the docs explaining you
have to find a log and read it. This is impossible to be popular.
