At the risk of repeating ad nauseam what several others have said, with Lyx
|
|
it is trivial. Can't say I've actually learned it, really. I just export
|
|
to DocBook or Linuxdoc, run sgmlcheck and pick up any errors using Vi (not
|
|
that Vi is essential, you could just page through the sgml and then go back
|
|
and correct the Lyx document).
