Dear Greg,

Thanks for the reply. What I really want is something to make presentation
slides in seminar, something like Lyx, which is the drive for me to install
cygwin-:)

Any ideas?

Best regards,
Michael Chen

You can use LaTeX for that. There are different packages depending on
what kind of slides you want to make. (here some I know of: prosper,
beamer, seminar, slides, etc.) Some of them take advantage of the
powerful presentation features of Adobe PDF (about which I think many of
us 'Windows also' people don't know at all).

HTH,
Greg
