7 Excellent Linux Apps You May Not Know About

“GLabels, Label, Business Card, and Postcard Printer
OpenOffice Writer has a pretty nice labels template, but Glabels is
faster and easier. You can make file labels, name badges, CD and
jewel case labels, business cards, address and shipping labels–
you name it, if it’s an Avery label Glabels supports it. Avery
labels are pretty much the de-facto standard, and it has a nice
wizard for creating custom templates. The only label type it
doesn’t support are the little specialized roll label printers,
like Brother label printers.

“Kile, Integrated Graphical LaTex Environment
I’ve been using Kile to write my latest book (Build A Computer
Sound Studio With Audacity! No Starch Press! Coming Soon!) and it
is a joy to use. I’m happy to have a publisher that doesn’t require
dumb icky Microsoft Word docs, and LaTex isn’t hard to use when
someone else writes the stylesheets; all you need to learn is the
markup. Kile has syntax highlighting and lots and lots of handy
pointy-clicky functions. It also permits as much manual markup and
futzing as you want.”
