Further information

For a general introduction to L^ATEX, including the new features of L^ATEX2_e, you should read by Leslie Lamport [#!A-W:LLa94!#].

A more detailed description of the new features of L^ATEX, and an overview of more than 150 packages, is to be found in by Michel Goossens, Frank Mittelbach and Alexander Samarin [#!A-W:GMS94!#].

The L^ATEX system is based on TEX, which is described in The TEXbook by Donald E. Knuth [#!A-W:DEK91!#].

There are a number of documentation files which accompany every copy of L^ATEX. A copy of L^ATEX News will come out with each six-monthly release of L^ATEX, and is found in the files |ltnews*.tex|. The author's guide describes the new L^ATEX document features; it is in |usrguide.tex|. The guide describes the L^ATEX font selection scheme for class- and package-writers; it is in |fntguide.tex|.

We are gradually turning the source code for L^ATEX into a L^ATEX document . This document includes an index of L^ATEX commands and can be typeset from |source2e.tex|.
