LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing
|
|
based on the structure of your documents (WYSIWYM) and not simply
|
|
their appearance (WYSIWYG).
|
|
|
|
LyX combines the power and flexibility of TeX/LaTeX with the ease
|
|
of use of a graphical interface. This results in world-class support
|
|
for creation of mathematical content (via a fully integrated equation
|
|
editor) and structured documents like academic articles, theses,
|
|
and books. In addition, staples of scientific authoring such as
|
|
reference list and index creation come standard. But you can also
|
|
use LyX to create a letter or a novel or a theatre play or film
|
|
script. A broad array of ready, well-designed document layouts are
|
|
built in.
|
|
|
|
LyX is for people who want their writing to look great, right out
|
|
of the box. No more endless tinkering with formatting details,
|
|
"finger painting" font attributes or futzing around with page
|
|
boundaries. You just write. On screen, LyX looks like any word
|
|
processor; its printed output - or richly cross-referenced PDF,
|
|
just as readily produced - looks like nothing else.
|
|
|
|
LyX is released under a Free Software/Open Source license, runs on
|
|
Linux/Unix, Windows, and Mac OS X, and is available in several
|
|
languages.
