Here's a place to let people know what, exactly, you can hack. (Or use.)
(Edited to remove graduated students. Revert if you feel that is wrong.)
Also for those who feel that they are inadequate because they cannot program in TeX/Mathematica, there will be workshops on these topics during Winter Study. All Math majors will receive an email about this soon. Anyone else can sign up by emailing Rahul Shah (09ras) or look in the daily messages/other appropriate communication media. ==Computer The Devil's Languages==

But if she ever decided aesthetics were worth everything and anything, she'd be all up ons for chem reports TeX-edWysiwyg Latex editor.)

He is that it's infinitely more user-friendly and intuitive than Microsoft Officealso very good at hacking.)
