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.

Hi Graham,

Quoting Graham Smith:

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
