LyX is a wordprocessor frontend to LaTeX, which gives both the
|
|
ease-of-use of a wordprocessor, and the flexibility and power
|
|
of LaTeX.
|
|
|
|
LyX produces high quality, professional output -- using LaTeX, an
|
|
industrial strength typesetting engine, in the background; LyX is
|
|
far more than a front-end to LaTeX, however. No knowledge of LaTeX
|
|
is necessary to use LyX, although it will give a user more power.
|
|
|
|
|
|
LyX is stable and fully featured. It has been used for documents
|
|
as large as a thesis, or as small as a business letter.
|
|
Despite its simple GUI interface (available in many languages),
|
|
it suports tables, figures, and hyperlinked cross-references, and
|
|
best-of-breed math editor.
