<p>I use vim, latex, wikis, subversion and git. I don't write papers often.</p>
<p>I also use google docs often at work and for simple tasks (sharing a spreadsheet with Melissa's mom, for instance).</p>

<p>I used to use moinmoin, doing slides with it is a breeze because it is another view and splits slides on an <code><h1></code> mark, it versions for me and supports latex.</p>
<p>Then I decided I wanted more control over my text files, so I wrote a set of scripts that would crawl directories and generate the appropiate html out of reStructuredText files, it worked neatly till I needed to put some math and then I got stuck. Halfway writing my rest parser to generate pngs with the equations (halfway number-of-lines wise, prob not time-used wise) I decided to give Sphinx a shot, and I liked it.</p>
<p>Now I am using Sphinx, but havent written much lately, so I suppose I havent found problems because of that :P</p>

Oh!, sorry, I thought your commenting system would sanitize html markup I meant < h1 >

<p>Para documentos sencillos, como una carta al ISP para pedir la cancelación de la cuenta de internet, uso Open Office. Para documentos más largos, como la tésis o wl CV uso LaTeX sin duda alguna.</p>
<p>A veces también uso un sistema de control de versiones, en mi caso Mercurial, pero no me parece tan práctico porque el sistema de diff basado en líneas y no en palabras no funciona con los documentos también como con el código fuente. Nunca me he puesto a buscar una alternativa para el problema de los diff, no sé si la haya.</p>
<p>Para notas utilizo Tomboy sincronizado a Ubuntu One para tener acceso a las notas desde otras partes.</p>
<p>Presentaciones con OpenOffice, todavía no he aprendido a usar el beamer.</p>

<p>@arhuaco: I tend to forget about google docs; don't really use it that much.</p>
<p>@LinX: Hate you! I think ikiwiki does sanitizing, but I haven't enabled it. I
guess.</p>
<p>Didn't know about slides using moinmoin. Interesting.</p>
<p>About Sphinx, hum, dunno. I kind of like it, but got somewhat scared when I saw
the fuckton of files and folders it creates for any document. My ideal system
is one that lets you do everything in a simple text format, but gives you a way
of defining structure, and maps it properly to PDF and HTML documents. Sphinx
kind of fits the bill, but is somewhat overwhelming.</p>
<p>@ceronman: oh God yes letters in LaTeX are awful to write. Yet, for personal
use, I cheat and recycle any previous letter I can find.</p>
<p>The text, line-based diff system is enough for me, but I think one of the
reasons for that is that I keep all my files at 80 characters per line. Have
you tried that?</p>
<p>About slides, sometimes *Office is oh-so-handy. But you didn't hear it from
me.</p>
