mailing-list for TeXmacs Users

[John P Daigle <address@hidden>]

My meta comment to this discussion is:

Is there any information in this thread that will help a TeXmacs user 
accomplish a task? This was the original point, right? Converting TeX 
to word?

I know, I contributed to the escalation as well, and I'm sorry that I 
did.

Clearly, some people have great success using TeXmacs to create 
articles for submission to publications and conferences. Others have 
not. Perhaps those that have been able to do this without a day of work 
could share some of their tips and tricks? Because at least one 
contributer to this forum has stated a dread of this process and could 
probably use some help.

Thanks,
John D.
