: would be nice if there was a good word processor package for Linux - anyone : any ideas? I admit I haven't looked in to this too much, but it would avoid Yes! there are several really *great* word processing / database / spreadsheat programs for linux out there. LaTeX / TeX with the LyX front end is quite good. As is Caldera's StarOffice (www.caldera.com) and Applixware, which has a *special* version for RH5 (you can find this at www.linuxmall.com , look under products). The other door, is to use wine and run an older version of MS Word for Windows 3.1. However, this is not suggested, because, well, it's still using Microsoft :) And besides, there are so many great inexpensive Linux Word Processors out there! /* bren tamilio *- -------------------------------------------- * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * http://hampshire.edu/~bat96 */ -- PLEASE read the Red Hat FAQ, Tips, Errata and the MAILING LIST ARCHIVES! http://www.redhat.com/RedHat-FAQ /RedHat-Errata /RedHat-Tips /mailing-lists To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
