Actually, I still like the SGML used by DCF & Waterloo Script. I have gone to the URL posted and entered the following comment: === Rather than a proprietary format, such as MS "docx", I would prefer a truly open format used by professional organizations. In particular, I think that TeX or, especially, LaTeX2e would be far superior to "docx". LaTex2e is the preferred document format for the American Mathematical Society and the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences. Many graduate schools prefer the use of some sort of TeX document for papers and theses. === > > Robert > -- > Robert AH Prins > [email protected] > > -- A fail-safe circuit will destroy others. -- Klipstein Maranatha! <>< John McKown ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
