Cheers, Johann. I had considered LyX, and indeed used to use it as my
Word Processor. But now things have moved along and I need more of a
DTP-type word processor. Lyx is indeed great for text production, but it
is somewhat inflexible about layout etc. and can be changed only with a
lot of effort.

No, I need to fax from Applix in particular. I am sure it is possible to
add a section  to /etc/mailcap which will invoke a filter to pipe the
output to efax, but I am not sure what it is. The necessity to interrupt
the process to add a 'phone number might be a problem.

Cheers anyway
