Of course. ;) Well, at least the documents for typesetting, and not LaTeX templates. You'll just see text with some RTF-style or tags that format the document, but all in all its legible. I think Horatio even has a "formatting" standard -- complete with comments and all! >> <notes that you don't even usually need to convert a LaTeX file into >> dvi or pdf form in order to read it> > > Would you have any good TeX tutorial documents to recommend?

I've tried TeX once -- found it a bit too... well, let's just say it wasn't as smooth riding as LaTex. LyX is fun! I first thought it got in my way, but later on found out it offered a LOT of flexibility. There are still times when I pop into vim to do some stuff, but LyX in general is great. It even has a visual Math equation editor, which I find better than MS Office's Equation Editor. Its truly a professional typesetting program. :) LyX uses its own document format, but it is possible to export the document to standard TeX/LaTeX/DVI/PDF/XML/HTML. >> All hail Knuth. =) Right on! ======================= Gino LV.
