It is like Unix. It is a bit hard at the beginning, but once you got
used to it, you don't want to do it in any other way. I used
WordPerfect, AmiPro and StarWriter. Most time that WYSIWYG stuff did not
work well. (Not talking about anoying bugs...) Then I converted to
LaTeX. First on OS/2, then *BSD. It is simply a pleasure to simply print
a xxx pages thesis while fellow students struggle a week with M$ Word to
get somthing onto paper. Not to talk about the fact that you recognize a
LaTeX document by the look, because it simply Looks Good (C) (R) (TM).
