I use "psiconv" from http://huizen.dds.nl/~frodol/psiconv/, on my
Psion S5; apart from psiconv, get Jim Ottaway's "psi2latex" (follow
the related links on the psiconv page); and maybe also the PS printer
drivers for EPOC (sorry no URL, search Google...).
psi2latex, which makes use of psiconv, lets you write LaTeX docs with
PsiWord (which is GUI in the same respect as M$ Word is). It uses
PsiWord's style files and visual formatting (italics etc.). You can
create your own styles (for example, I have a "Zitat" environment in
LaTeX and a corresponding PsiWord style).
LaTeX itself is not provided, so the .tex files must be compiled on
another machine. There's an x86-emulator for EPOC which would
theoretically allow to run LaTeX on an emulated DOS, but that's of
course theory.
