but even if you do that, latex/tex have to chew on the files first.
whether you have them spit the files out in the direction of the
screen or the printer, you still need tex/latex. the upshot is that
you pretty much need a full tex installation even to preview files.
you could run latex on someone else's machine that you access
remotely, but that's hardly worth the trouble. if worse comes to
worse, just get the source for tetex and compile it yourself. texlive
is another option.
and besides, you will want to print out your stuff for editing.
