I want a replacement for Macromedia Freehand / Altsys Virtuoso which doesn't leave me beholden to Adobe. That's a PostScript-oriented vector-drawing program w/ an elegant interface. Bonus if it supports creating vector brushes like Creaturehouse Expression. Even better if it'd support METAPOST and allow one to switch between drawing and coding. I want a replacement for Notebook.app --- bonus if it supports inking and bitmap editing / sketching. I want a replacement for Lotus Improv which has undo and the nice 3D graphs from Informix WingZ. I want TeXshop (which is my replacement for TeXview.app) to ``just compile''. I want LaTeXiT.app (which affords the TeX eq -> eps Service from TeXview.app) to ``just compile''. I want the programming tools to be so great that someone is able to easily create a GNUstep front-end for LyX. I want Services to work _everywhere_ and to be able to display a .pdf (or .eps) and be confident it'll print (I guess Display GhostScript is gone? I find that aspect of the project confusing). I need to assemble a system which works on a portable machine w/ a Wacom digitizer (supporting pressure input would be nice) and daylight-viewable display which can replace my current system (a Fujitsu Stylistic ST-4121 running Windows XP Tablet PC edition, Autodesk Sketchbook, FutureWave SmartSketch, Macromedia FreeHand, WinTeXshell, EverNote, Lotus Improv, &c.).
