I thought I would do what probably millions of other people have done -
install LaTeX and use it for all my document-preparing needs.
So why the hell is it so hard? The only Linux-friendly distributions of
LaTeX I can find are ftp archives with zero documentation (e.g.
ftp://ctan.tug.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/ ) Whatever happened to
tar-balls and readme files?
So I'll ask you guys: Where/how do I get LaTeX? I've already installed a
TeX implementation (teTeX) and I'm actually a little uncertain exactly
what LaTeX gets me beyond that, nor have I found any concise answers.
For such a widely-used program, the documentation is simply awful.
uh, little help?
