What is it? It's called TeX. Probably the best type setting software out there. AUCTeX + preview LaTeX is an awesome Emacs mode to edit (La)TeX Documents w/ some WYSIWYG features. There is also some integration of AUCTeX / preview LaTeX into org-mode. This may make it possible to send short snippets to a TeX process from a plain text file w/o. But I haven't tried that. But org-mode comes with a good manual. Of course you have to install (La)TeX before you can use it. On GNU/Linux this shouldn't be to hard. I don't think there is any distribution that has not packaged it. David
