Nice thread... :-) I'm one of the plain_text/text_formatter types (for larger docs), just as Wouter. :-) While looking/googling around, I found DocBook : http://wiki.docbook.org/topic/DocBook And specificaly a (free) Windows tool for DocBook ("eDE") : http://www.e-novative.info/software/ede.php. DocBook is SGML based (much easier to "read" then LaTeX, IMHO), so it resambles a lot the old tool I've used before (DEC Document). I plan to download the 24 Mb eDE kit, but are there anyone who have used DocBook and/or eDE ? Preferable on Widnows.
