    Do you mean that you already have the texlive package installed and now only want a user-friendly frontend?

    What features do you need?

    Do you want the editor to give you a preview of the equations?

    TeX Live does not include an editor nor a previewer as far as I know.

    Could you explain what you want to achieve? Why <10MB?

    because I am limited by my installation in terms of size. I simply need the editor and nothing else (all other package such as openoffice ... or abiword)

    Your installation does not include TeX Live or similar TeX package. Do I understand you correctly?

    What exactly do you want the editor to do? Since you can write LaTeX code in any old editor, I guess you want something more like being able to preview the equations on screen, generate images or create PDF's.

    Perhaps a web-based editor like jaxedit could be an option. You can download it to run it offline as well. The tarball is only 3.1 MB and even the uncompressed folder uses less than 10MB.
