Texmakerx is a buggy (just take a look at the bug tracker) and unstable fork of 
the original Texmaker LaTeX editor. This fork is based on a buggy and 
unmaintained library (QCodeEdit). This fork uses intentionally almost the same 
name, the same logo and even the same version number to make confusion with the 
original program (which also provides interactive spell checking!!).
Of course, forking is a right and can be a good thing, but using intentionally 
the same name and the same logo is not very compliant with the open sources 
rules.
