IMO it's not really intended to new users, but rather to administrators (for example, it answers how to add to the filesystem, and where, the brand new XYZ style or font). you can go on learning and using LaTeX without it... cheers -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
