LyX. Use it once and you'll wonder why on Earth word processors were even invented. After your enthusing about it at the meeting, I thought I'd give it another look (I generally use Xemacs & LaTeX as my ``word processor'' ;-) Anyway, I find that I cannot[1] install it here, because it's non-free software, since it relies on the non-free Xforms library (which is non-free because its source is not available).

Try KLyX - AFAIK it uses QT instead of Xforms. You may find a couple of bugs relating to entering Greek characters - if so then I can send you the patches. The LyX people are currently working on GUI independence - I think this would be a worthwhile project to contribute to if anyone has the time and inclination. Michael Brown Fen Systems Ltd.
