Steve, I never claimed that any particular tool is the perfect tool for
*you*. I just claimed that this and that are the advantages of
particular tools and that these tools meet this and that requirement of
yours. You claimed that I am wrong and that your requirements can't be
met by latex tools.

I never claimed that. I claimed that certain tasks, IMHO, can be
achieved more efficiently with latex tools. You said: no, in my case
not, because this and that won't work or won't work like I want it. I
tried to explain to you that latex tools are flexible enough to work the
way you might want them to work. Your claims 'this and that don't work
with latex' were wrong. That's all.

Agreed. Take your decision, use the tool *you* like. But don't make
wrong claims about the limitations of other tools.

I was just trying to help you, I am sorry that this effort was irritable.
