I'll be the first one in line for your new sofware!

Actually there is a pagelayout program called Lyx that generates Latex
output (not really a bad idea) but from the little that I have looked at
it, I don't find the user interface very comfortable. Take a look and tell
me what you think. I'm an old pagemaker user (emphasis on the old) and
asside from several gross bugs, I will be happy when wine can run my 5.0
version. (There is a new version of wine that I have yet to test, so hope
springs eternal.)

Luck,

Dwarf
