writing a letter in LaTeX

1998-12-01 Thread Roy C Bixler
Hi: I tried using Lyx to write a letter and, in the end, had to resort to Star Office 5 because of an apparent bug in LaTeX. The Lyx output looked fine, but LaTeX did not include either the 'from' or 'to' addresses in the output DVI file. I was pretty shocked by this, since a long time back when

www.debian.org question and Re: SSH/X11 vulnerability
