Hi James, VaShaun, and others, Justin Harford did a demo of LaTex using VoiceOver and TeXShop on Blind Cool Tech if you are interested in getting an impression of how TeX documents and the TeXShop program for the Mac work.
The mp3 file is at: http://mediacloud.libsyn.com/bct/bct1078IntroductionToLaTeX.mp3 or, you can go to the Blind Cool Tech Podcast page at http://www.blindcooltech.com/ and look for "Introduction to LaTeX" 6/26/07 Cheers, Esther On Wednesday, September 19, 2007, at 07:19AM, "Greg Kearney" wrote: >That's right the learning curve is steep with TeX, the rewards are >well worth it however. > >Greg >On Sep 19, 2007, at 11:05 AM, James Austin wrote: > >> It is free, but please get in touch if you've not used it before, it >> is not simply a case of typing as with a word processor >> On 19 Sep 2007, at 17:23, VaShaun Jones wrote: >> >>> I think I will be getting Latex .
