the above is a flame-bait. but atleast i won't fall for it. for 25 years, serious TeX users know that TeX is not in the same category as ordinary word-processing, much less office suites such as oo.o and m$o. TeX is for typesetting, and for something called 'document engineering.' no comparison, even though both seem to do the same thing. but the similarity ends there. in the world of software sufism, there is no contradiction. the intelligence of the heart sees that a computer can have both OO.o and teX & its tools such as LaTex, KILE, LYX, etc, peacefully co-existing. to this, i'd also add DTP like scribus. as an aside, i can show you many people who handle letters, invoices, etc, all from a spreadsheet rather than a wordprocessor, even though the output is identical. big deal. and btw, i use all three. :-) LL _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
