Yes, there is tmview-98.06, which is split into the two .deb packages
"dvisvga" for the console and "dvilx" for X11. Both work just great and
especially "dvisvga" is a great means for having true WYSIWYG right at the
console. These packages are not present in Debian-2.0 but you can easily
fetch the sources from "frozen" and compile it yourself. I've already done
so for Debian-2.0 and you can get the binaries from our unofficial site at
"ftp://ietpd1.sowi.uni-mainz.de/pub/debian/unofficial/{source,binary}"; as
dvilx_98.06-1_i386.deb, dvisvga_98.06-1_i386.deb and tmview_98.06* for the
sources. An updated lyx-1.0.0pre2 package is available too.
Cheers, P. *8^)
