Not tested, but seems to store settings in "conf" folder within program directory. Being a Java program, it probably isn't stealth.

Looks like a solid alternative to Sigil.

Appears to have a with and without JRE distro, which of course is convenience vs. size.

Version 1.7.1 is out and looks to have some positive changes included. Download: https://github.com/asciidocfx/AsciidocFX/releases
Changelog (no data on the most recent release): https://github.com/asciidocfx/AsciidocF ... NGELOG.asc

I have heard from people close to the core Asciidoc tools that while there's no replacement for the core toolset, the Asciidoc FX program can do a lot.
