It's great: text, equations, drawing, indexing, EPS. Fully WYSIWIG and mouse driven. The only thing it's lacking (vis a vis TeX) is bibliography database and formatting support. It's also pretty easy to use despite it's power. If you're know any Emacs, it's even easier, since the keystrokes for simple moving, deleting, etc. are the same. We're running the X/Motif version on a Sun as a client to SGI's X server. I think Frame has a NeWS version for SGI boxes. An X version is probably in the works. Disclaimer: No association with Frame.
