Our department is evaluating it for use by faculty and staff who do not
know TeX. So far it looks as if it will work, and we currently plan to
negotiate for a site license. It seems clear that we should at least get it
for our secretaries, but we hope to be able to afford it more widely.
    It is exactly what it claims to be: a WYSISWYG front end for LaTeX.
It comes with it's own copy of LaTeX, but that can of course be replaced
by your present version if you wish. We have not yet tested it for
compatibility with NFSS, but I would not expect it to work. When LaTeX
2.1 appears, presumably they will upgrade.
