st: OT: your favorite math equations editor

["Mary (Merlin) Marshall" <marshall.11@osu.edu>]

Greetings Statalist,

I have a collegue who teaches dynamic and thermodynamic meteorology at Ohio 
State University.  His operating system is Micro$oft Win2000 (maybe 
Win98).  He has been thinking about using Powerpoint to teach his classes, 
but his lectures involve deriving lots of equations and he does not have a 
good equation editor.  This equation editor would also be used to generate 
equations in research articles for publication in meteorology journals.

So, I have a question for all of you using the Windows operating system who 
must write a lot of equations in your publications, lectures, etc. What 
editor would you recommend/what is your favorite editor?  If you have 
experience with more than one equation editor, what were the pluses and 
minuses of each?

Thanks,
Merlin Marshall
