- Or it can simply be written ``LaTeX'' for those who upgrade when they
- should and hence assume that they are working with the most recent
- version.

- I know that LaTeX is not a C program, as I also know that TeX is not a
- C program. Perhaps I did not make this clear in my post, but I was
- talking about compiling TeX. Web to [language] converters are a dime a
- dozen, and C is considered the official language of the Amiga. I also
- know that PasTeX is *NOT* the most recent version of TeX (which is at
- least 3.14159 I think), nor does it contain the most recent version of
- MetaFont. Building one's own copy of the software seems the only
- option, rather than waiting for someone else's version.
