hello, everybody!

I'm a new one in list. I'm searching for a word processor (make a text
bold, underlined, paragraphs, etc.) running at Linux. I need one that is
graphical, user-friendly and with which I can see the results right away
(don't have to compile like in Latex). 

Do you have anything in mind?

Thanks in advance
Voula Sanida

Andrew EZ can do this and is free, but its to say the least a bit weird.
Commercially you can get Applix which also includes spreadsheet,graphics,
slide generation etc, and word perfect. See

http://www.uk.linux.org/LxCommercial.html

for a list. In the case of Applix there is a special offer on currently
for students
