For a general introduction to LATEX, including the new features of
LATEX2e, you should read
by Leslie Lamport [3].
A more detailed description of the new features of LATEX, including
an overview of more than 150 packages, is to be found in by Michel Goossens, Frank Mittelbach and Alexander
Samarin [1].
For more information about the many new LATEX packages you should
read the package documentation, which should be available from the
same source as your copy of LATEX.
There are a number of documentation files which accompany every copy
of LATEX. A copy of LATEX News will come out with each
six-monthly release of LATEX; it will be found in the files
|ltnews*.tex|. The class- and package-writer's guide
describes the new LATEX features for writers of document classes
and packages; it is in |clsguide.tex|. The guide
describes the LATEX font selection scheme for class- and
package-writers; it is in |fntguide.tex|.
We are gradually turning the source code for LATEX into a LATEX
document . This document includes an index of
LATEX commands and can be typeset from |source2e.tex|.
