"Crap HTML" you say -- is the HTML OO.o produces as bad as the Word generated code? I guess you can tidy it afterwards anyway if need be. Yes, it is possible to use word processors _right_. I know a couple of really clueful MS Word users who have developed a habit for using styles. Armed with Word (and lots of Word knowledge) and Endnote for a bibliography database, they actually seem to work pretty much the same way as I do with LyX and Pybliographer. The only difference is they have to split their big documents to 10 or 20 page chunks while working on them -- Word doesn't like big documents it seems. :) The OO.o file format is not as bad as Word either. You will be able to read your OO.o documents in the future even if OO.o goes under. -- Juha Siltala http://www.edu.helsinki.fi/activity/people/jsiltala/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
