I highly recommend the comp.text.tex newsgroup. The people there are generally helpful. Looking in /usr/share/texmf I found the following:
/usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/babel/spanish.sty
/usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/spanishb.sty

spanishb.sty appears to have definitions to redefine the section names and sets some definitions. If you do not like there headings, you can copy the file and make any desired changes. Of course I am assuming you are using the redhat package.  There also appears to be a bibliography style file as well.

In your doc, then
\usepackage{spanishb}

Of course I am assuming you are using the tetex-1.0.6-7 distribution. I would recommend an update to this version number or higher. I forget what it fixes, but it never really gives me problems. Also consider the latest rpm's ghostscript-6.0-1 since ps2pdf can encode all fonts into a resulting pdf document.

I don't know of a mailing list, but if you find one, please let me know.

Thanks,
Juan
 

 
Subject: [OT] Some help with LATEX.
Date: Tue, 7 Mar 2000 09:24:25 -0600
From: "Manuel Antonio Camacho Quesada" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: "Linux (E-mail)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I am writting some docs in Spanish using LATEX, but I don´t know how to
change the defaults from English to Spanish. For instance, LATEX
automatically writes "Chapter" and I need to change this for "Capítulo".
Another example is when I create the table of contents: I get "Table of
Contents" as heading and I need to change it to the Spanish equivalent
"Tabla de contenidos".

Is there any way of doing this? Does any body knows about a LATEX mailing
list???

TIA,

-Manuel.
