I seem to recall making this point when i shared that while I respect the
*personal* computing choices of others, I need not emulate them.
In fact I never asked for word processing suggestions at all. Mine,
works, for, me...and I think the rich thing about computing is the
freedom to use what works for you.
What is making me smile besides the useless discussion comment from
Curt, is the insistence, on a list that focuses on building computer
programs from source, and where individual contributions are
encouraged...is the suggestion that anyone at all has to use the same word
processor. That and the idea that anyone can decide what is superior for
another person's computer choices.
I picked this note at random because I was surprised so many were still
talking about this.
It is called personal computer for a reason. i honor your idea of
personal for you, may you , and you know who you are, learn to do the
same.

Why do we all have to like the same word processor?
Indeed. And some of us actually like *document* processors (best example in
Debian: lyx) for extremely consistent output (and IMHO, much higher
productivity).
There is an entire world out there of text processing that decouples
presentation from content...
