>How is the reliability of it? This professor had a data loss issue with the last version I have experienced data loss with LibreOffice 3.5 on Linux several times when trying to save a freshly typed document as .rtf. I "solved" the problem by saving a blank document first and then adding more data to it. Oddly, that "fix" has worked with numerous programs through the years. >keeping my creative works safe I use LyX [1] and TiddlyWiki [2] for that. Uncompressed text formats are far easier to deal with in the long run and allow for better recovery of incomplete data in the case of a storage medium failure.
