When publishing, there is some work needed after exporting to LaTeX, but that would be true no matter what initial editor or word processor you used. At this point I couldn't see myself using any other tool, not LibreOffice, not Scrivener, or anything else. The advantages of plain text are hard to overstate, as is the advantage of having everything from plot notes to research material in a single (large) file under version control. And building up a novel from an outline is a natural process with org-mode. -- Bob Newell Honolulu, Hawai`i Sent via Linux Mint 17.
