Are there better alternatives? Which programs do you fellow economists
use for writing articles?
Go for the real thing. Use LaTeX. If you're addicted to point-and-click and
you don't mind the KDE-Qt style, Kile is not bad, but if you ask me,
Emacs+AucTeX is the definitive answer. You may want to start with Kile and
switch to Emacs later.
On LaTeX, read this first:
