I am sure it also has much appeal to computer scientists as it is a programming language allowing them to roll their own document designs. The old refrain still holds. What You See is What You Get really mean What You See is All You Get. I have been using TeXtures for some time and although it is a bit pricy, I have been getting my money's worth out of it.
