LaTeX is certainly worth looking at - see, for instance: http://www.andy-roberts.net/misc/latex/latextutorial10.html http://www.artofproblemsolving.com/Wiki/index.php/LaTeX:Math There is an online LaTeX editor at: http://www.sciencesoft.at/flashlatex.jsp?lang=en&remove=1 and an online equation editor at: http://www.sitmo.com/latex > "Lyx is a front end to LaTeX. <snip> I would avoid Lyx in favour of Kile (http://kile.sourceforge.net) - it is not WYSIWYG, but it is much easier to see what LaTeX is doing. Lyx tends to hide all of this, so you don't really learn LaTeX, and I have had Lyx corrupt files too. -- Pob hwyl / Best wishes Kevin Donnelly www.thinkopen.co.uk - blog www.kyfieithu.co.uk - KDE yn Gymraeg www.klebran.org.uk - Gwirydd gramadeg rhydd i'r Gymraeg www.eurfa.org.uk - Geiriadur rhydd i'r Gymraeg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
