This is a development release, but I can't get any of the "stable" releases
to build properly and run w/o dump core with xforms 0.86.
(they use an even/odd version numbering scheme like Linux)
Lyx has entered a somewhat code-freeze for an upcoming 0.12. So this version
should be ok (better than "stable" 0.10.7 is on FreeBSD at the moment...)
LyX is a wordprocessor frontend to LaTeX, which gives both the
ease-of-use of a wordprocessor, and the flexibility and power of
LaTeX.
Quasi-WYSIWYG interface, many LaTeX styles and layouts automatically
generated. Speeds up learning LaTeX and makes complicated layouts
easy and intuitive. New features include spell-checking, international
character support, WYSIWYG graphics, tables, and equations.
