I really think Racket's Scribble has a chance to over take Latex. https://docs.racket-lang.org/scribble/ https://docs.racket-lang.org/scribble/
Scribble is well designed to be a more readable Latex with the ability to be beautifully type set.
Example:
#lang scribble/base

- danraftis 9y agoWow, thanks for the resource... going to give this a go on a current project of mine. Does anyone know of a solution that solves having fairly complex Excel tables? It seems like all of these Latex solutions just have basic text tables...
- baldfat 9y ago> Excel Tables? Are you meaning just having nice looking tables? If your going more then just nice looking tables I HIGHLY recommend RMarkdown. http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/lesson-7.html http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/lesson-7.html Using RStudio with RMarkdown makes amazing looking tables with the package Stargazer. http://www.jakeruss.com/cheatsheets/stargazer/ http://www.jakeruss.com/cheatsheets/stargazer/
