Andreas, Thanks, I thought it might be, there is unfortunately some confusion within the term DTP between tools for laying out a flyer or magazine and tools for producing books and other text intensive documents.
I've just started using Lyx, and while I suspect it isn't a FM killer, it does seem very good for the work that I do. Graham On 8 Feb 2007 19:52:23 +0100, Andreas Siegert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I actually installed it today and had a quick look. It is a layout program, not a writing program. Probably nice to do a flyer or small brochure, but not for writing anything lengthy with cross references etc.. I really wish I still had FM on AIX (or Linux) ;-( cheers afx -- Andreas Siegert [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.crash.muc.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
