  • Yes! I’m no longer at university, so I don’t typeset equations or graph data often anymore, but I am a big fan of -mom for typesetting other notes. I especially appreciate its split between “document processing” (semantic meaning) and “typesetting” (visual presentation) macros, which resonated with me due to its similarity to the split between HTML (semantic) & CSS (presentation).

    Do you mean using LibreOffice to view markdown documents with nicer presentation? I never knew LibreOffice could do that! I will admit I have grown to like markdown because I can get my coworkers to use it without too much hassle, but we use it with Wiki.js, not for its own sake.

    I’m glad to hear you settled on using groff with -mom :)

















  • Insofern, dass es manchmal dort Antworten auf Fragen gibt, die man nirgendwo anders findet. Also, passiv und nach Bedarf.

    Mein Konto ( zum Glück habe ich Lemmy ziemlich schnell gefunden :D ) habe ich zwar nicht gelöscht, weil es mich verärgert, anstelle der besten Antwort deleted mit Kommentaren darunter wie genau das hat bei mir geholfen! zu sehen.
