What system do you use and do you like it ? What would you like to see. What about the Documentors Workshop stuff from sgi ? Is is any good for academic bibs ? Freeware ? Commercial systems ? Has anyone tried or is using ocr scanning to input abstracts and text whith an eye to extracting the bib info ? Are there any systems for this. Is there any ocr support that will run on an iris ? How does tex compare with postscript for paper writing ? How is the sgi TeX system ?
