Hello! Although being some time out of high-quality publishing, now I'd like to decide whether to settle on LyX (seeing it approaching 2.0) or trying something like ConTeXt...
I've experience with LyX (did last book in 2002.) and would like to know if some LyX users has/had some experience with ConTeXt and/or can give some comparison between LyX/LaTeX vs. ConTeXt? The obvious advantage of the former is that is it quite stable, LyX has, if i see properly, several developers, while, otoh, ConTeXt is mostly one-man-show, documentation is not organized well or dispersed in several parts etc. otoh, LuaTeX is heading towards MK IV (aka ConTeXt-ng) and I wonder what is the plan with LaTeX/LyX in regards to better/simpler font handling, Unicode support etc., iow. will LyX will be able to use LuaTeX as well? Is it already possible to use it? Sorry for possibly dumb questions, but I was away from this arena for some time mostly being engaged using Emacs + markdown markup for my writing and would like to continue writing with these tools and then use Pandoc to convert to LaTeX (and import to LyX) or convert to ConTeXt? Is it possible to use Xindy with LyX today? Sincerely, Gour -- Gour | Hlapicina, Croatia | GPG key: CDBF17CA ----------------------------------------------------------------
