Hi there,
I'm about to start writing my thesis. I'm not a LaTex guru, but I've used it
during the last 2 years for everything I've written. I think I should not
have many problems doing my thesis wit LaTex, but I'm taking a look at
alternatives (mainly because I don't know how handy would be using a normal
text editor for a big latex document). So I downloaded and installed LyX.
It looks very nice to me, but I would like to know from those who use it on a
regular basis what Lyx has to offer to a LaTex user. For example: can I
import and use in LyX custom LaTex document styles (i.e. the styles they use
in my university for thesis)? Is LyX very flexible (i.e. can I do everything
I do in LaTex - mmmhhh.. what a question :) )?
In short, I would like to hear the pros and cons of LyX in respect to LaTex.
Thanks very much for your time,
Francesco
