on using LateX in word processing:
1.) for people used to programming (on any language) it would not be
difficult getting used to LateX
2.) Latex files are actually txt files with commands inserted on the text.
kaya mababasa mo rin ang *.tex file with any editor.
3.) I was tempted to use Lyx on my thesis writing last year. kaso, nasanay
na ako sa mga commands, kaya hindi ko na rin kinailangan ang mga buttons
ng Lyx.
4.) "LateX Rocks!"
5.) note: pwede ring gumawa ng slide presentation with LateX (SLiteX).
Masmadaling gamitin lalo na kung maraming figures and equations ang
documents.
