And may I just mention that I'm in love with LaTeX? Grab Leslie Lamport's book, which is well organized and easy reading. Spend a bit of time creating a template and a script or two to automate presentation formatting (I'd be happy to share mine with you, Eric). After that, a new document is just a few simple tags around my content, and then I get instant printable PDFs, and web pages that look like I worked on them for days! And BibTeX will wow you, too, if you're doing reports or research. - -d - -- David Talkington PGP key: http://www.prairienet.org/~dtalk/0xCA4C11AD.pgp - -- http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/pale_blue_dot.html -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5.8 Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.75-6 iQA/AwUBPE8RO79BpdPKTBGtEQJcUwCguw8QxPIg/bSgadBPT/vLIC9GFc8AnRwa xj0S38ylnQ1u5uBnxKXdvTc9 =BU6u -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
