Inside the Unix culture, every tools or editors should be connected each other. Simple word-processor such as FullWord cannot do it, since Unix has his own ( bad or not so bad ) way of connections. TeX or *roff is such kind of things. In article <E5f$a51@cs.psu.edu> , melling@cs.psu.edu (Michael D Mellinger)writes > numbered? Everyone in the non-Unix world is using word processors. > Why aren't Unix people? Soon, we will have WysWyg type layout structure editor with in Unix. But if that Very Good Tool is independent from all other unix tools or files, nobody (at least not I :-) will use it. For example, Publiss is such kind of thing. So I prefer xfig rather than MacDraw, even how good MacDraw is. -------- Shinji Kono $B2OLn??<#(J Sony Computer Science Laboratory, Inc.: kono@csl.sony.co.jp
