  Grab a copy of LyX, it is _awesome_!  Only thing is, you need latex2e - grab
the base 1 to 9 and the font 1 disks from the ntex and it runs flawlessly.

  ntex is available from any linux mirror under apps/tex/ntex, LyX is at
sunsite in the incoming directory, or from 

http://www.lehigh.edu/~dlj0/dlj0.html

or version 0.7 is here at
