Lyx

What is Lyx?

LyX is a powerful document processor that combines the flexibility of TeX/LaTeX with the ease of use of a graphical user interface. Unlike traditional word processors that focus solely on appearance (WYSIWYG), LyX encourages a writing approach based on the structure of your documents (WYSIWYM). This results in world-class support for creating mathematical content, structured academic documents, and a wide range of other document types, including letters, novels, and scripts
