Could someone please post short
descriptions of the following:
SeeTeX & xtex -- Dirk Grunwald's X11 based previewers. I see a
comp.archives posting on it as of 19-Feb-90: xtex is at v2.14,
supports Display Postscript, "still no documentation worth speaking
of". Ftp it from expo.lcs.mit.edu and foobar.colorado.edu. xtex is a
subset of SeeTeX, I'm not clear on what else is there (Dirk?).
SGML -- Standard Generalized Markup Language, an ISO standard for
marking up text. As a most general approximation it looks like <ital>
this </ital> rather than \it{this}. I've seen at least one book on
the subject & occasional net postings (in comp.text mostly).
VORTeX -- no clue.
