Tried to install amyedit, which looks quite interesting, but on configure, it turns out to be dependency hell! Various gtkmm bits are not in the path, or not installed, so I tried installing them (this is Mandriva), they seemed to go in ok, but still can't configure. I do have apt-rpm installed, but that doesn't seem to find gtkmm... Oh well.
I'll keep trying, but one question: why, in the FAQ, does it answer the question why not use GEDIT instead? Am I missing something about GEDIT? It looks like any other very stripped down text editor, and not at all to be an alternative to Kile or Lyx or anything like that. There must be more to it, if people use it to create LaTex?
