Office Applications LinuxOrbit reviews AbiWord. AbiWord, the word processing program by AbiSource [22]is reviewed by Linux Orbit. "This article was written entirely in AbiWord, and the experience was overall quite pleasant. It has a familiar interface that allows a crossover user to just fire it up and get right to work, without the unpleasantness of learning a new scheme. Any user familiar with Word, WordPad, KWord or any other word processor for that matter, should not have to climb too steep a learning curve when using AbiWord for the first time." LaTeX: A diamond in the rough (ZDNet). In a Linux Opinion column this week, Evan Leibovitch explains the ever reliable and mature [23]text formatting system called LaTeX (pronounced LAH-tek).

These files, when complete, are then run through a processor to create formatted output. The resulting "dvi" (device independent) binary file can be easily churned into PostScript, or PDF files, or X Window displays, or many other printer and typesetting machine formats."

Lou Grinzo walks new users through the [28]Linux desktop from X to Eazel in this story from ComputerShopper. "The GUI on a typical Linux system begins with software known generically as X11. This is usually XFree86, a free program that lets applications display information in graphical mode. You can run it by itself, but bare-bones X11 is extremely primitive. Instead, you should run a window manager on top of X11 that offers a slicker appearance with more convenience features" From the Desktop: S Is For Sawfish and Shedding (Linux Planet). Brian Proffitt reviews [29]Sawfish, the favored window manager for the GNOME desktop. "The level of control within the Sawfish Configurator is truly incredible.

Andrei Malacinski [56]discusses Java debugging techniques in an IBM developerWorks article. "In today's world of tight schedules and the constant demand for more function, developers often don't have the time, or don't take the time, to think about a debugging (or tracing) strategy. There are always more important things to code than debug statements. This article provides developers that strategy for free -- Java source code and all -- relieving them of the need to design and implement one of their own tracing strategies and allowing them to concentrate on their application's main logic. Two techniques are presented in this article, one for development-time tracing and one for run-time tracing." Perl Weblog 1.6 (webreference.com). Version 1.6 of Weblog [57]has been released.
