I won't be using it (at least not yet) since I've already got the Linux LaTeX up and running. Not much time to practice coding up some docs, yet. I've just compiled some existing .tex files to see if my basic installation was working correctly. It seems to be fine. I got started on all of this because I am using the command line more and more and want to do some of my regular work there. I've also got a a few repetitive layout tasks that are rather tedious to do with WYSIWYG word processors but which will, I think, be greatly streamlined (and the results more consistant) if I use something like LaTeX - maybe with some PERL scripts. The more I read, the more interested I am in learning to do some GOOD typesetting on computers... My (now deceased) grandfather was a traditional typesetter and I have very early memories of going to the shop with him. That must have something to do with it...
