Dear Listmembers

Thank you! I have gotten the kind of info I needed, including:
*an URL comparing FM and PM
*types of mark-up languages involved (XML, etc)
*basic differences between FM and PM (the gist of which is neatly summarized in the email below)
*info on a new (to me) but similiar program: InSight

Essentially, though, FM and PM are very similiar when it comes to learning how to use them, so that is good news for me :-)

How's this (just thought of it after answering the same question umpteen times over the last five years):

Framemaker: Start with a document design and fit it into pages.

PageMaker: Start with a page design and fit documents into it.

That is a very succinct description of the two programs.
