- I use FrameMaker on both my NeXTstation and Powerbook 170 primarily
- because of its equation processor and ability to handly longish technical
- documents populated with figures and tables as well as equations. The
- equation processor is especially spiffy because it is also a symbolic
- processor so you can edit, rearrange, and transform equations...or do
- derivations. (But it can't plot the equations.)
