- Could somebody please give me a good description of what the heck TeX is.
- I've seen it talked about on this newsgroup before, but never really understood
- what it was. In fact, I've always thought it was some commercial product
- untyil I saw it listed on Fish Disks 611-616. They are awefully big files
- and I don't feel like dl them unless it's something I will use. So, wehat
- is it? I have speculated that it might bwe some sort of word processor or
- possibly a program for evaluting complex mathematical formulas, but I reaslly
- don't know.
-
- Sorry if this is a FAQ but I really want to know.
