So, LaTeX was not considered?
It is nicely editable in text editors, versionable with git, has CLI tools, has templates that can be used as-is or customized to the gills.
To top it off, it has 30 years of development and packages at its dispsosal that can solve almost every need that arises.
- rjsw 3y agoPeople don't like LaTeX. I work on a family of ISO standards. Started off using LaTeX 30 years ago, then Microsoft Word, currenly using a custom XML workflow, starting to transition to AsciiDoc+AsciiMath.
- bradknowles 3y agoFor the kind of writing I've done, I have not seen LaTex offer anything that I could not get in easier ways that worked better for me. I've never seen LaTex offer anything of value to me. So, no -- I would not use it.
