Re: Writing technical text
Yes, there's Lyx and there's a commercial wysiwyg latex editor that my
photonics friends at university used to rave about - can't remember the
name of it though and it wasn't cheap - about 300 GBP=450 USD by memory.
But these are rather like HTML editors - they don't give me the control I
crave - and unless they are very good at not messing around my hand
written code I have no time for them. Doesn't stop me from trying to
make a good wysiwyg HTML editor though!
Be prepared to ask lots of questions when using latex, rather than get
frustrated. It's like unix - there's a simple way of doing most things
but sometimes it's non-obvious. If there is a latex mailing list out
there join it, and let us know about it too whilst you are at it!
Best Wishes,
Max.
