Latex is the input equivalent of writing a book using Morse code.
So,
1. What do you people use to enter equations into a computer document?
2. Are you happy with it?
3. Do you foresee/expect/hope for any improvements?

TI84 fags stay mad
Use latex senpai
I can type 10 characters per second. Latex is a piece of cake.
You are complaining because you cannot type as fast as you draw symbols but when you were a retard kid drawing symbols was hard too. Heck, I bet your first integral signs looked like shit and then when you wanted to make them nice you had to do it a little slow.
Just git gud at keyboards, fag.
>1. What do you people use to enter equations into a computer document?
I use LaTeX. Your opinions notwithstanding.
>2. Are you happy with it?
Yup!
>3. Do you foresee/expect/hope for any improvements?
The TeX parser is kind of an abomination, with nontrivial macros being sort of impossible which in turn makes all sorts of things more difficult than they need to be. Probably not going to get finished anytime soon though, compatibility and all that.
LaTeX is great for typesetting equations; fucking horrible to write a complex document in (lots of tables, images etc).
seems like it's just hacks built upon hacks
>fucking horrible to write a complex document in (lots of tables, images etc).
I agree -- but it's still much better than anything else I have seen for writing complex documents with lots of tables and images and the like. It sure beats Word.

Was thinking about giving something like Adobe InDesign a try one day to be honest but I think the math support would be pretty shitty.
What about Scientific Workplace?
