There you find the files guide, latex2e and lshort (read them in that order). Here it says pretty much about the latex basics. If you want to expand your knowledge, read the docs in /usr/share/doc/texmf/latex/. They belong to the packages. So for example, if you want to make mathematical documents, read /usr/share/doc/texmf/latex/amsmath/amsldoc.dvi.gz (by xdvi .../amsldoc.dvi.gz, there is no need to unzip it first). That was about everything I needed to start me off. If you are wondering about something, search the archives of comp.text.tex with google first. Then you can always ask a question in that newsgroup. Greetz, Sebastiaan -- NT is the OS of the future. The main engine is the 16-bit Subsystem (also called MS-DOS Subsystem). Above that, there is the windoze 95/98 16-bit Subsystem. Anyone can see that 16+16=32, so windoze NT is a *real* 32-bit system.
