Is it just me, or is OpenOffice terrible about styles?
One day when mad at LyX, I briefly tried writing a 2nd edition of a book in
OpenOffice (the first edition had been in MSWord from 1999). My styles didn't
copy over, then when I manually put in styles they intermittently vanished.
OO is great for a 2 page letter, but it's a horror movie when writing a book.
After that foray into OO, I got really serious about learning to program LaTeX
environments and commands, and their counterparts in LyX.
