To all LyX developers;
I want everyone to know how thankful I am of the effort you've all
put into LyX. I know (first hand, actually) that when you put
something out in the "Open" World, very few users will acknowledge
their indebtedness to the efforts, and great ideas of the
contributors.
I, personnally, use LyX to generate LaTeX templates for pre-
formatted reports on RF devices, where all the electrical
parameters are tabulated and plotted in a beautiful report with
great headers and footers, which also include the company graphic.
I use LyX to get the format I want, then embed the TeX into my
code, process it through LaTeX, and voila, a PDF. I can't even
contemplate using the alternative (Word ActiveX, give me a
break!). LyX has also served as the greatest resource in learning
TeX, I do what I want in LyX, and examine the TeX output.
Thanks, guys,
...Dan
Ditto, to that!!
I'm using LyX to write my thesis, and the thought of using the
alternatives gives me nightmares.
After a short learning curve of the program I am up and running and
will save countless hours of not having to worry about the formatting
of my thesis, and in the end I will have a professional looking
document.
Thank you all very much!!!
