I have occasionally used LibreOffice, and that sort fo WYSIWYG editing is very convenient for things that don't need the power of TeX. However, every time I am unhappy that (1) it is missing all the other capabilities of Emacs and (2) it is incompatible with Emacs. I would really like to be able to use Emacs to do this WYSIWYG editing. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
