Since I'm not sure where this would go, I'm posting it here.

Can anybody recommend a good Linux equivalent of the WinEDT LaTeX program? I've just started using Fedora Core and I would like to be able to cross over with familiar software as much as possible.

Thanks.

Kile is the best out there, easy to use and the learning curve is not steep at all
