LaTeX help

I discovered a very useful site for seeking help and knowledge about LaTeX. LaTeX is a very rich technological tool for creating professional class documents. Even experienced users get into difficulties while using this sophisticated tool. If you need help, and dont know whom to ask, just visit::
http://www.latex-community.org/ You can also learn a lot by just peeking at what replies others have got for their queries.

To give you an idea, I posted my first query to this forum this morning, and in less than ten miuntes I had half a dozen replies. I could solve my problem,and have posted back the solution I used.


It is amazing, how much of help is available, and yet there is so much of ignorance all around us.

More educational CDROMs

I have been working on two of my pet CDROMs.

The CDROM "Why is Linux good for me ?" is a new avatar of the popular (famous ?) CDROM "Linux in a teaspoon". This CDROM is now fully updated and ready.

I have also created an encyclopedic CDROM on LaTeX. You will find an answer to almost all your questions, or at least find a pointer to where you can get the answers. Good for teachers of mathematics, and students.

You can of course ask for a live presentation of Linux or LaTeX (or both), and get these CDROMs free of cost.
