LEd (formerly LaTeX Editor) was a freeware editor for TeX and LaTeX, built for a Microsoft Windows platform.

LEd offered a project manager, powerful editor, integrated spellchecker and thesaurus, built-in DVI viewer, descriptive hints for LaTeX commands, code complete mechanism, word wrapping, code folding, multilingual environment, and more.

System requirements

LEd supported Windows 95/98/Me/NT4/2000/XP/2003 operating systems. LEd's capabilities varied according to the operating system used, e.g., Visual Styles from Windows XP. However, it worked with almost full functionality on Windows 95.

The recommended system configuration was:

  1. 333 MHz processor,
  2. 64 MB RAM,
  3. 4 MB of disk space for the standard edition + space for projects (space occupation depends on the spellchecking and thesaurus dictionaries),
  4. Windows 2000/XP/2003 operating system.

Compatible TeX distributions

LEd can be used with any TeX distribution, however its full functionality is available with a distribution based on TeXLive or MiKTeX. LEd has been tested to work correctly with:

  1. TeXLive 6,
  2. TeXLive 7,
  3. TeXLive 2003,
  4. TeXLive 2004,
  5. TeXLive 2005,
  6. MiKTeX 2.4,
  7. MiKTeX 2.5.
