Oh, and since there was some talk about word processors, I should mention Atlantis. I do a lot of search and replace, often including text strings together with formatting characters, and Open Office can't do that. I tried about a dozen other word processors and found Atlantis can do everything I want and it has a nice personality. There's a free version that's adequate for me, but I like it so much and use it so much that I decided to go for the pay version, which I think was only $30.
