Dear list,
Has anyone had any success running Word-to-Latex converter, mentioned on contextgarden, on linux? In theory it should be possible using wine and winetricks.

Replying to myself. Before trying on my linux box I asked my administrator to install it on a windows box and it fails even to load its own configuration file when I try to use as ordinary user. Is it really worth the effort at all?

Did you visit the homepage http://kebrt.webz.cz/programs/word-to-latex/ to check the prerequisites? I tried it out for somebody else, and with word, mathtype and net1.1 installed it did quite a nice job. It is basically a Word macro, even though you can call it from outside Word (which is not recommended). -- Siep Kroonenberg
