What I've sometimes imagined in a system where there is a menubar on a text editor that is the markup menubar. So you can ask for a paragraph or a list or whatever and it puts the markup in the text. Combine that with a split screen, rendered output at the top, source at the bottom and you're 95% of the way there. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitkeeper.com _______________________________________________ Groff mailing list Groff@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/groff
