The first public beta of Leibniz for Windows is now available for download at http://www.athenet.net/~jgregg/Leibniz.html Leibniz is a mathematical word processor and alternative front end for Mathematica designed for use in Mathematics education. Leibniz uses a powerful pattern matching scheme that makes it possible to do a wide variety of calculations by simply clicking and dragging. The beta version of Leibniz for Windows is a preliminary release of the software for Windows 95/98 and NT 4.0. I have not completed all of the features, and a final release is still a few months off. The beta version is largely complete, missing only code for plotting and copy/paste of pictures. Given the interest in Leibniz for Windows, I have decided to go ahead and release this preliminary version as a free public beta. Please note that the beta requires that you have Mathematica 3.0 or greater installed. The eventual full release will be able to function as a stand-alone text and equation editor, but this version requires that you have Mathematica installed.
